    ADRODDIAD BLYNYDDOL / ANNUAL REPORT 1981-82 MAXWELL FRASER BEQUEST & TREFIN ARCHDDERWYDD CYMRU BEQUEST 1982001 Ffynhonnell / Source The late Maxwell Fraser (Mrs Edgar Phillips), Slough, Berkshire. Blwyddyn / Year Adroddiad Blynyddol / Annual Report 1981-82 Disgrifiad / Description A brief description of this bequest appeared in last year's Annual Report. It consists of the manuscripts and papers of Maxwell Fraser (1902-80), authoress and travel writer, and of her husband, Edgar Phillips (`Trefin', 1889-1962), to be known at the testator's request as the `Maxwell Fraser Bequest' and the `Trefin Archdderwydd Cymru Bequest'. The `Maxwell Fraser Bequest' is by far the larger group and contains correspondence ; diaries with detailed entries, 1933-80, and a journal of a tour of Poland in 1930; drafts and typescripts of books, articles, and broadcast scripts; notes and material relating to the testator's researches in connection with these works including a large group relating to Lord and Lady Llanover and the Hall family ; circulars, newsletters and correspondence relating to the many societies of which the testator was a member (the Cambrian Archaeological Association, the International Arthurian Society, Kilvert Society, Offa's Dyke Association, P.E.N., Sherlock Holmes Society of London and other societies which reflect her interest in literature, history and archaeology, music and Celtic matters). There is a substantial amount of correspondence (letters received and copies of replies), much of it connected with the preparation of the testator's many books, articles and guides, and with her work preparing publicity material for the Great Western Railway and British Railways (Western Region) (including Holiday Haunts, 1929-62).

  • A Short History of Wales by Owen M. Edwards</H1>
    A Short History of Wales by Owen M. Edwards A Short History of Wales by Owen M. Edwards This etext was produced from the 1922 T. Fisher Unwin Ltd. edition by David Price, email [email protected] A SHORT HISTORY OF WALES by Owen M. Edwards INTRODUCTION This little book is meant for those who have never read any Welsh history before. It is not taken for granted that the reader knows either Latin or Welsh. A fuller outline may be read in The Story of Wales, in the "Story of the Nations" series; and a still fuller one in The Welsh People of Rhys and Brynmor Jones. Of fairly small and cheap books in various periods I may mention Rhys' Celtic Britain, Owen Rhoscomyl's Flame Bearers of Welsh History, Henry Owen's Gerald the Welshman, Bradley's page 1 / 114 Owen Glendower, Newell's Welsh Church, and Rees Protestant Non- conformity in Wales. More elaborate and expensive books are Seebohm's Village Community and Tribal System in Wales, Clark's Medieval Military Architecture, Morris' Welsh Wars of Edward I., Southall's Wales and Her Language. In writing local history, A. N. Palmer's History of Wrexham and companion volumes are models. If you turn to a library, you will find much information about Wales in Social England, the Dictionary of National Biography, the publications of the Cymmrodorion and other societies. You will find articles of great value and interest over the names of F. H. Haverfield, J. W. Willis-Bund, Egerton Phillimore, the Honourable Mrs Bulkeley Owen (Gwenrhian Gwynedd), Henry Owen, the late David Lewis, T.
