Summary

Welsh Assembly Origins explores the historical journey of Wales toward political autonomy, revealing that the modern Senedd is the result of centuries of striving for self-determination. The book traces the evolution of Welsh political identity, from early princely governance through periods of English rule, highlighting key events like the Statute of Rhuddlan, which significantly curtailed Welsh independence.

 
Understanding this history is crucial for grasping the current political landscape and ongoing debates surrounding devolution. The book examines the emergence of Welsh nationalism and the movement for Home Rule, analyzing the referendums on devolution. It demonstrates how the desire for self-governance was fueled by a cultural renaissance and the need for political recognition.

 
The narrative progresses chronologically, beginning with early Welsh kingdoms and culminating in the establishment of the National Assembly for Wales, offering an insightful look into the constitutional battles and the shaping of Welsh political aspirations.

    An expert historian on Mary, Queen of Scots draws on hundreds of her encrypted letters to paint a vivid portrait of one of history's most compelling figures. 
     
     
     
    For almost two decades before her execution at Fotheringhay Castle in 1587, Mary, Queen of Scots was a prisoner. From her chambers, she wrote countless letters, many encrypted using complex ciphers to prevent her communications from being intercepted. In this way, she used language to exert her will and her influence, even while incarcerated. 
     
     
     
    More than four hundred years after Mary's death, the discovery of further encoded letters has led to renewed interest in the breadth of her correspondence while in captivity. 
     
     
     
    In Captive Queen: The Decrypted History of Mary, Queen of Scots, Jade Scott draws on hundreds of these ground-breaking letters to create a vivid picture of one of history's most fascinating personalities. She interprets Mary's complex relationships with friends and enemies alike throughout the years of her imprisonment, illuminating Mary's strategic vision while bringing her captivity to life like never before.
