註釋Excatly 800 years ago Gerald Cambrensis set off on a tour of Wales. Naturalist, theologian, diplomat, knight and gossip Gerald's own personality is almost as fascianting as his description of the wild land through which he passed. Quicksands, highwaymen, poor roads and swollen rivers hindered his progress, but the travellers were also met by great hospitality. This well-illustrated pamphlet, reissued for the 800th anniversary, contains articles by a host of famous Welsh historians describing Gerald and the world in which he lived.
