From the Norman Conquest to the present day, the main theme of Welsh history has been the struggle for freedom and survival. Vividly and lucidly, Gwynfor Evans here retells the heroic fight of the Welsh Princes, the dramatic revolt of Owain Glyndwr and the ensuing short period of independence, and the struggle for autonomy in the 20th century. With the establishment of the Senedd, a new era in Welsh politics has dawned. The role of Plaid Cymru and her aim of full statehood for Wales is discussed the ultimate goal of the fight for Welsh freedom. This easy-to-read introduction to 2,000 years of Welsh history contains pen portraits of Welsh heroes through the ages who were inspired by the idea of Welsh national freedom.
