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.’
