Summary

Pilgrimage in and beyond Wales is the concern of this New Middle Ages study. Well-written and with an attractive subject, it is a first-class addition to the series. It deals with the pious men and women who made their way to Bardsey out in the Irish Sea or St Davids on the Atlantic coast or Holywell in north-east Wales, while others were journeying to Santiago de Compostela or Rome or even Jerusalem, as shown by Welsh poetry and the like.
