A concise history of Wales by Geraint H. Jenkins
This book may not be nearly as long as John Davies' history of Wales, which I considered reading; but I found A Concise History of Wales a perfectly helpful book in understanding the history and culture my best friend comes from.

A concise history of Wales by Geraint H. Jenkins
Professor Jenkins’s history of Wales, its politics, people, languages, cultures, although concise is full of information about the country from its earliest inhabitants up to 2006. It is quite an accomplishment. I highly recommend it.
