On the Welsh border sits a town with layers of history, and William Cathrall digs through all of them. From the derivation of its name through the British and Norman periods, the civil wars, and the Restoration, Oswestry's story unfolds. Local history rich with battles and old streets. A thorough chronicle for anyone drawn to the frontier towns where England meets Wales.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
