The Gwent County History, Volume 1
Gwent in Prehistory and Early History
Distributed for University of Wales Press
“The publication of this volume, the first in what promises to be a distinguished series, is a matter for celebration. This volume is a resounding success at many levels. It provides an accessible narrative of Gwent’s pre-Norman past, it embodies the most up-to-date interpretations presented by those who are at the forefront of research and it reveals, as the story proceeds, the working methods, aspirations and sometimes the frustrations of scholars as they piece together the story of the long march of the people of Gwent.” –The Monmouthshire Antiquary
“Sobriety and consummate scholarship are the hallmarks of this pioneering volume, setting the scene for the Gwent of our nearer ancestors and of our own day . . . even the most complex, arcane topics are presented clearly and intelligibly . . . Engrossing and intriguing!” –www.gwales.com
