Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Civil War in Wales, Vol. 1 of 2: And the Marches, 1642-1649 Some years ago, while engaged in an investigation into the history of my native parish, I was anxious to learn whether the Castle, which forms its principal attraction, had been garrisoned during the Civil War. I found that there was no book which could give me the information I wanted, but I discovered that vast materials existed in the boundless waste of the King´s Pamphlets at the British Museum, in the State Papers at the Record Office, and in private collections; and that so far as Wales was concerned it was an untrodden field. After some hesitation I resolved to attempt to contribute something towards a history of the Principality during that period. The leisure hours of some years have been devoted to the subject, and the result is now offered to the public, in the belief that it will fill a gap in the History of Wales and the Marches, and that it will not be without some interest to my countrymen. Of the labour which this Work has involved I will not speak. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
