Official synopsis Publisher
Dillwyn Miles, in every sense a Pembrokeshire man, has put together in this anthology some of the best and most intriguing passages from writings about Pembrokeshire, her history, her people and her wildlife. Giraldus Cambrensis describes Manorbier in the 11th century, Nelson visits Milford, Ronald Lockley sees Skokholm for the first time. As Wynford Vaughan Thomas writes: ‘Here are magnificent castles, curious cromlechs standing among the heather on lost hillsides, strange church towers as strong as fortresses. The visitor, the ex-patriot and those of us who have neglected our heritage are eager to know their story, but where are we to find it? A Pembrokeshire Anthology is the perfect passe partout to the literature of Pembrokeshire.’
