Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War and Wales Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford Fellow of the British Academy. The fog Of war hides much from our eyes besides the incidents Of the long-drawn struggle on the battlefields Of Europe, and not least the silent but momentous changes which are taking place in the minds of men, whether belligere'nts or neutrals. It is probable that in few, if any, Of the countries affected by the war are these Changes deeper or more pregnant with consequences than in Wales. The interpreter of the Welsh spirit has need Of the gift Of divination in no scant measure if he is to grasp its secrets. Dr. Morgan has thus set himself no easy task in the present volume. But he was well equipped for the effort, for it will hardly be denied that his knowledge of Welsh char acter is Of the most intimate. In his previous writings he has Shown himself a candid friend Of his countrymen, and played a part which demands no small moral courage; for it is the prophet who prophesies smooth things who alone finds honour in his own country. It is good to know, however, that Dr. Morgan supplies the exception which proves the truth of this rule and the reason doubtless is that even those who do not see eye to eye with him cannot grudge him the recognition that he possesses, not only candour of expression, but the deeper and more valuable candour of mind - the temper which impels a man to see things as they are.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wales and the Wars of the Roses I have ventured to use contemporary Welsh poets as authorities; this has made it necessary to include a chapter on their value as historical evidence. It was thought necessary, also, to give some account of the state of things in Wales during the first half of the fifteenth century, and of the part played by Welshmen in the last phases of the Hundred Years' War with France.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Wales: Written Originally in British But as soon as the Roman legion was transported into Gaul, the Picts and Scots returned, and having by a de sperate assault passed the wall, pursued the Britons with a more dreadful and bloody slaughter than formerly. The Britons, perceiving their condition most desperate, once more sent their miserable complaints to Etius, in these tragical words: To zetius, thrice consul, the groans of the Britons the barbarians drive us to the sea, and the sea drives us back to them, and so, distracted betwixt two deaths, we are either drowned or erish by the swordf But they solicited to no purpose: tife Romans having al ready bid absolutely farewell to Britain, and the empire being cruelly oppressed by the Goths and other barbarous nations, they were not in a condition possibly to assist them. The Britons, therefore, finding themselves absolutely for saken by the Romans, and conceiving it utterly impracticable to drive away the barbarians by their own strength, saw it urgently necessary to call in the aid of some foreign nation, whose labour in repelling their enemies should be gratefully and satisfactorily rewarded.
