Reviews:
David
Crouch in Archaeologia Cambrensis: ‘Julia Barrow is a scholar of
European interests and reputation She brings the wide range and depth of
her scholarship to bear on the problems of St Davids and the result is a
brilliant essay on a diocese and episcopal community evolving at a time of
rapid change … the South Wales Record Society is to be highly commended … the
Society has brought the study of Welsh ecclesiastical institutions into the
European mainstream and done a great service to Welsh scholarship.’
Nicholas
Vincent in History: ‘…a near faultless edition, the product of
many years of archival research, providing an essential tool for all scholars
of Welsh and ecclesiastical history…’
J R
Davies in Cambrian Medieval Celtic Studies: ‘…a much needed
addition to the sparsely equipped tool-box of historians of the
Welsh
Church in the Middle Ages.’
