Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of the Council of the Marches in Wales, an extraordinary court established to resolve disputes and maintain order in a region long plagued by conflict. The author traces the Council's origins to the reign of Edward IV and follows its development through the Tudor period, a time of significant social and political change in England and Wales. Drawing on a rich body of archival sources, the book sheds light on the complex relationship between the Council and the local authorities, the challenges it faced in enforcing the law, and its use as an instrument of personal government. The book also explores the broader constitutional implications of the Council's existence, particularly its role in the struggle between the common law courts and the prerogative courts. Ultimately, the book argues that the Council played a crucial role in the establishment of a more centralized and effective system of government in Wales, contributing to the region's eventual integration into the English state.
