About the Book

The Making Of Modern Wales; Studies In The Tudor Settlement Of Wales. TO THE READER THIS book is not intended to be a History of Modern Wales, but an attempt to describe the transformation of Mediaeval into Modern Wales. No pioneer has blazed a path through the untrodden forest before me. Dr. Henry Owen, the late Judge Lewis, Mr. Lleufer Thomas, and Miss Skeel have done valuable work in reference to the Court of the Council of the Marches. Dr. Thomas Rees and others have spent much labour over the history of Nonconformity. But, except in these directions, I have had the benefit of no previous work. These circumstances will help to explain why I have apportioned so much space to the decay of Catholicism and so little, comparatively, to the rise and progress of Nonconformity in Wales so much to the Court of Great Sessions and so little to the Council of the Marches. The story of Catholicism in Wales after the Reformation has never before been told, while innumerable volumes have been published dealing with the history of Protestant Nonconformity. No one has ever attempted to give an account of the Courts of Great Sessions, important though the part was which they played in the development of Wales, while Miss Skeels exllaustive monograph on the Council of the Marches has rendered the task of writing its history a work of supererogation. The difficulty about the last two chapters of this book has been to decide what to leave out. I am indebted to my friend, Prof. Garmon Jones of Liverpool University, for several valuable suggestions relating to the Introduction and Chapters I., II., III., and IV. and to my friend, Prof. Sir J. Morris Jones of Bangor University College, for kindly looking through and making some corrections in and not servitude is the cure of anarchy, said Burke in his great speech on Conciliation with America, the profoundest manual of civil wisdom. To statesmen of the blood and iron school, that plangent phrase is a meaningless and dangerous paradox. It took the world unnumbered centuries to see even as in a glass darkly the truth of that vital principle in the government of men. The old-world conquerors, Senacherib and Nebuchadnezzar, laid desolate the countries which they had subdued. They rased to the ground the cities which they had taken. They carried the conquered peoples into captivity...
