“. . . an essential stock for libraries worldwide with any interest in Wales or in European literatures.” –Language and Literature Reference Reviews
“. . . Glyn Tegai Hughes’s dazzling opening essay . . . contains the best short introduction that I know of to the problematic of eighteenth-century Welsh religious history; his use of comparative contextual material from Germany is especially illuminating. Another gem, worth buying the book for, is Geraint H. Jenkins’s brilliant and often hilarious survey of historical writing in the eighteenth century.” –Planet
