"""Nancy Edwards has achieved a publication that evaluates the story so far in which academic, commercial, governmental, and museum archaeology, but also community archaeology projects, are providing an evergrowing body of knowledge. This book thus sets the foundation for research on the archaeology of early medieval Wales for decades to come."" -- Howard Williams, Current Achaeology"
