Modern Wales
First published in 1984, this second edition of a highly-regarded survey of the history of Wales in modern times contains fully updated reference material and a new final chapter. "A clear, crisp and thoroughly sensible narrative which will prove a real boon to students and general readers."--The Times Literary Supplement
A History of Education in Wales
This authoritative survey provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution of the Welsh education system from its earliest times to the present day, and examines the way in which changes in education policy have affected the Welsh economy and altered the political relationships between Wales, the United Kingdom, and the National Assembly of postdevolution Wales.
The Education of a Nation
An examination of the relationship between the central authority for education and the educational demands of the people of Wales. It argues that recent and current government policies are as dismissive of Welsh priorities as those which in the past provoked the Welsh revolt.
Degrees of Influence
Few Welsh scholars of the modern era have served their profession, university, and country as admirably as Sir Glanmor Williams (1921-2005), and this volume recounts his remarkable contributions to the flourishing of Welsh history during the past half century. Highlighting the political, economic, educational, and social threads in his work--including the launch of the Welsh History Review, the major publication series Studies in Welsh History, the Oxford History of Wales, and the Glamorgan County History, as well as his charming and modest memoir A Lie--this memorial tribute pays honor to an eminent figure in Welsh public life.
The People of Wales
None
Tudor Wales
A series which breaks entirely new ground in the study of the history of Wales. The editors commissioned material from some of the most eminent historians working in Welsh history both in and outside Wales. Contributors were asked to draw on their expertise in areas of Welsh historiography which they have made their own, but to approach their themes in a novel way. The result is a unique blend of secondary and primary source material on the history of Wales. In each volume a series of essays addresses seminal topics. Each essay is cross-referenced in detail to a documentary section which is compiled by the author and forms the source base for the relevant essay. This treatment of each topic is followed by a section in which the evidence is put under scrutiny by an expert outsider who discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the documentary material and the limitations which it has imposed on the author's conclusions and methodology.
People and Protest
A volume in a series which studies topics and periods of vital concern in the history of Wales.
