O knihe
On Christmas day at Abergavenny Castle in 1175, The Baron of Abergavenny, William de Braose committed one of the most heinous acts in Welsh history. In a period where treachery, deceit and slaughter were commonplace, this must rival any of the monstrous deeds that were carried out during these extremely violent times. William de Braose invited Seisyll ap Dynfwal, his son Geoffrey and all the noblemen of Gwent to Abergavenny Castle for a reconciliatory Christmas dinner. While the Men of Gwent were enjoying the excellent banquet and drinking de Braose's fine ale, the doors were thrown open, and de Braose's soldiers rushed in and slaughtered all the Welsh in attendance. This is my version of what may have happened on this bloody Christmas day in 1175 and the events leading up to it.
