Description

Cardiganshire is the most distinctive of Welsh counties—home of the historic kingdom of Ceredigion, several significant monastic sites, and the National Library of Wales.  Covering much of Cardigan’s contribution to Welsh culture, this volume discusses the landscape, people, customs, and significant centers of religions worship that help to define the county’s rich and diverse history, as well as less-trodden aspects of Cardiganshire’s past like emigration, geographical difference, superstition, and sports.

Author Biography:

Until recently he was a lecturer at University of Wales Lampeter. He is due to take up a post as lecturer in History at Liverpool John Moores University.
