Industry Reviews "...lively and authoritative..." London Review of Books - Terence Hawkes (02/22/1996)
"More than 60 years after J. E. Lloyd's classic biography, 'Owen Glendower', appeared in print, R. R. Davies has produced a new study of the revolt and of the society into which it erupted--a study which deserves immediate recognition as a contemporary classic." Times Literary Supplement - Helen Castor (03/01/1996)
"Combining recent scholarship on the revolt with his own unrivalled knowledge of medieval Wales, Professor Rees Davies sets the rebellion more firmly in its contemporary context than ever before. The result is a meticulously researched and beautifully-written account which is a pleasure to read." Good Book Guide (02/19/1996)
