Awdur(on)/Author(s) : Graham Loveluck-Edwards
“A rip-roaring whistle-stop tour of some of the most important events that have shaped the Wales we know today. Loveluck-Edwards' narrative style harkens back to fireside tales of old, with the perfect balance of wickedness his devotees have come to love. If your inappropriate pre-2000s history teacher had one or two sherries and wrote a book on Wales, this would be it. I learned more than I expected to, I laughed more than I should have...” Nation Cymru

In this book Graham Loveluck-Edwards takes a light-hearted romp through a rogues' gallery of scandalous behaviour. Everything from medieval miscreants to swashbuckling pirates. Even a few Kings of England thrown in for good measure. All viewed from the perspective of the people of Wales. We look at the antics of these scoundrels and ask, "do they deserve their bad reputations?"
