Description
Affectionately known as 'little England beyond Wales', Pembrokeshire has a rich and distinct history and culture drawn from the predominantly English speaking south and the Welsh speaking north of the county. This title will provide a concise yet scholarly history of the county and its people. The authors have been selected both for their undoubted scholarship and intimate knowledge of their own particular regions and for their ability to interpret and communicate that knowledge in a lively and concise style to students, scholars and tourists alike.
