A book entirely devoted to a subject in and of Wales that has not previously been published in Wales. The subject -- Masculinity -- is also a growing discipline in international study. The novelists presented societies and times in which they had either lived or continued to live. Working class or ‘proletarian’ fiction features in several UK and US university syllabuses. The book connects Welsh fiction to a broad, international context beyond an English regionalism.
There is no published collected criticism on Ron Berry. This is a unique selling point. Berry did not receive the critical acclaim he deserved in his lifetime. This is the first attempt to address this apparent neglect. Berry’s work is hugely relevant to the study of modern Wales, as it straddles the industrial and post-industrial period. His environmental writings and concerns were so progressive that they were perhaps wasted upon his original readership.

"This book breaks new ground in that it offers a reassessment of Perrot's career and of his trial, and it contributes to existing research in the field of political affairs in late Elizabethan England and Ireland. It is hoped that this study will restore a great Elizabethan who hailed from Wales to his rightful place in history. The tale of Sir John Perrot's trial and treason will appeal to anyone interested in matters of secrecy, betrayal, loyalty and, ultimately, in miscarriages of justice."--BOOK JACKET.

Gray's classic work on English Field Systems was published. This book both synthesizes and advances our knowledge of field systems in the British Isles.
