Place-Names of Flintshire
This is the first thorough, authoritative study of the place-names of the entire pre-1974 Flintshire, scholarly in substance, readable in presentation, with its selection of names based on the OS Landranger 1:50,000 map. The entry for each of the 800 names presents a grid reference, documentary and oral evidence with dates, derivation and meaning, and a discussion of the significance of the name in terms of history, language, landscape and industrial associations. Additionally, comparisons are drawn with similar names in other parts of Wales and the UK, and the later linguistic development of names is charted in light of the particular influences of a bilingual society.

Clwyd: Denbighshire and Flintshire
Clwyd, covering the former counties of Denbighshire and Flintshire, is exceptionally rewarding in architecture. the medieval period has left a fine legacy, including castles of the time of Edward I as sophisticated as any in Europe, the monastic ruins of Basingwerk and Valle Crucis, and the distinctive local 'double-nave' type of Perpendicular church. Country houses range in size and ambition from Erddig, Kinmel and Chirk Castle to a host of lesser buildings, humbler but still of quality. Towns such as Denbigh and Ruthin, village groups and Victorian seaside resorts all add to the pattern of styles and materials, a pattern further enriched by relics of the Industrial revolution and the striking diversity of vernacular styles.
The Life of Saint Brychan
The Life of Saint Brychan is about the Saint and his many children, all of them considered Saints. The relationships to the King of Brienchienog is shown thur either his first wife, or his second after he was widowed. In the book Saint Brychan's lineage is examined, as well as his first wife Prawst, and his second wife Rigwast. There are many Saints related to Saint Brychan, and in the book the relationships are shown. Charts made to show the relationships are better than words, as it is said a picture is worth a thousand words. Charts are very explanitory for lineages and are extensively used in the book. Saints who are ancestors of Saint Brychan are examined, some with charts, and Descendents of Saint Brychan are examined. The High King Arthur is shown and was considered the King of Britain at the time.
