Editorial Reviews
Glamorgan Gem
"[T]his well researched book is a must for all those who live off the land."

Book Description
Chronicling the growth and survival of the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society, this work celebrates the success of the Society, which has become one of the four major agricultural societies in the United Kingdom. Enlivened with illuminating anecdotes and personal histories, this book pays particular attention to the reversal of the Society's fortunes at the time of its move to a permanent site at Llanelwedd in 1963. Published to coincide with the Society's centennial year, this work explores the organization's initial years in Aberystwyth and the 37 canvas-towns erected in different towns in north and south Wales.
