Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Analysis of the History of Wales Any attempt at writing an Analysis of the History of Wales involves the initial difficulty that there exists no comprehensive history on which it may be based. A few admirable Short Histories have appeared in recent years, but they are obviously inadequate for the purpose. Much has also been written on various aspects of Welsh History, but it necessarily lacks the unity of a complete work. This Analysis could not, therefore, be based on any one historical work. Still, despite the frag mentary character of its origin, an attempt has been made to give it the unity and continuity of a complete history.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Journey to England and Wales "A snug little island! A bright little, tight little island! Search the globe round, And none can be found So happy as this little island." You and I may not agree with the person who wrote this bit of verse about England, but our English ancestors believed it firmly. To them "Old England" was the most beautiful spot on earth. We can understand why America did not seem an attractive country to them, for they endured much suffering and hardship during the first few years they spent here. When they left their comfortable homes in England and came to America they found but a wilderness. Much of the time their lives were in danger from unfriendly Indians, and in addition to this they sometimes suffered for lack of food and other necessities, so we cannot wonder at their looking back upon England as a happier place in which to live. They told their children stories of the pleasant years spent in the old home in England, and these children came to have something of the same affection for the mother country as the parents.

Download or read book Owen Glyndwr and the Last Struggle for Welsh Independence With a Brief Sketch of Welsh History Classic Reprint written by Arthur Granville Bradley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Owen Glyndwr and the Last Struggle for Welsh Independence With a Brief Sketch of Welsh History If this little book purported to be a biography in the ordinary sense of the word, the scantiness of purely personal detail relating to its hero might be a fair subject of criticism. But men of the Glyndwr type live in history rather by their deeds, and the deeds of those they lead and inspire. This is peculiarly the case with the last and the most celebrated among the soldier patriots of Wales. Though so little remains to tell us of the actual man himself, this very fact has thrown a certain glamour and mystery about his name even in the Principality. While numbers of well-informed Englishmen are inclined to regard him, so far as they regard him at all, as a semi-mythical hero under obligations to Shakespeare for such measure of renown and immortality as he enjoys, if the shade of Henry the Fourth could be called up as a witness it would tell a very different story. It is at any rate quite certain that for the first few years of the fifteenth century, both to England and to Wales, to friends and to foes, Owen was in very truth a sufficiently real personality. What we do know of him, apart from his work, might well suggest infinite possibilities to the novelist and the poet.

Download or read book History of the Princes of South Wales Classic Reprint written by George Thomas Orlando Bridgeman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Princes of South Wales The history of the subjugation of Wales has received such a very partial consideration from those who have written upon it as a detached page of British history, that it seems desirable to investigate it more closely, and to compare it with such original documents as we still possess. The chief difficulty which meets the student of Welsh medieval history is the scarcity of official deeds. The writings of the early chroniclers, though singularly faithful on the whole, cannot always be implicitly trusted, and it is not often that the facts they record can be authenticated by contemporaneous documents. Heraldic Pedigrees afford but little help; indeed they often serve rather to mislead than assist the enquirer; for though many of them have been preserved by their owners with praiseworthy care for several hundred years, they have been drawn up from the first with palpable inaccuracies and without any regard for dates.
