Offa’s Dyke – A journey in words and pictures

Description

Foreword by Iolo Williams, the well-known Welsh naturalist. ISBN 9781843236993. This sumptuous publication is both a guide and a celebration of the beautiful border country that stretches the length of Wales, from coast to coast, from Chepstow to Prestatyn. When King Offa commissioned the building of this marvellous eathwork, could he possibly have imagined that over a thousand years later people would still be fascinated by the dyke? Jim Saunders enables armchair travellers to marvel at the landscape, stop and stare at the wealth of wildlife or even dig into the turbulent history of borderlands.
