Tudor Wales is a historical guide to the Welsh places connected with the dynasty and its ancestors. Nathen Amin moves from the Tudor family’s roots at Penmynydd on Anglesey through castles, churches, houses and landscapes associated with their rise, including Pembroke, Harlech, Carew, Raglan, Conwy, Denbigh, Lamphey and St David’s.

The book combines travel guidance with family history, explaining how Welsh noble networks and the descendants of Owen Tudor became entangled with the English royal succession. Its sites illuminate the careers of Owen, Edmund and Jasper Tudor, the birth and Welsh support of Henry VII, and the dynasty that followed him. The emphasis on surviving places makes the book both an introduction to Tudor Wales and a companion for visiting the physical remains of the family’s history.
