Published in Batsford's 'British Heritage' series with splendid wrap-around dustwrapper artwork by Brian Cook. First published in 1937. 'The call for a new edition came in the midst of war. There was no time or occasion to carry out a thorough revision, but an attempt has been made in text and illustration to indicate a little of the part Wales has played in the war, her effort in the factories and in shipping, and the devastation of her cities, towns and monuments by enemy bombers.'
