Recensioner i media

This volume is the first major investigation of processional activity in urban South Wales. It brings to light material which will be new to readers and it offers a refreshing and sometimes challenging new perspective on working-class culture in nineteenth-century South Wales. This book will no doubt become an important reference point, both for urban historians and for readers interested in modern Wales. Dr Louise Miskell, Department of History and Classics, Swansea University
