Description

The Story of Cardiff is a long overdue general history of the city, from earliest times to the present, concluding with comments on the issues, challenges, and opportunities that the twenty-first century will present. Neither does the author neglect the city’s architectural development and heritage: rather than being narrowly focused on local history, the book will attempt to show, where appropriate, how what happened had a wider significance. The author has an eye for a telling anecdote, and this, together with his lively and authoritative research, will make the book appealing to anyone who is seeking to find out more about this fascinating city.
