Taylor, Chief Inspector of Ancient Monuments and a leading scholar of Welsh fortifications, distills a lifetime of study into a lucid account of Edward I’s castle system in Wales. Limited to 150 copies in grey parchment boards bound by Desmond Shaw, out of a whole edition of 165 copies; this parchment-bound copy is unnumbered.
