Book excerpt: A photo-led coffee-table compendium of 50 buildings and structures that have helped to create the Wales we know today. Written by architectural historians Greg Stevenson and Mark Baker, with images by acclaimed photographer David Wilson, the book explores the idea of identity as expressed through a nation's "bricks and mortar." There are even a couple of buildings outside of Wales, a couple that have been lost, and one that moves every year to a different location.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architecture reflects not only a nation’s history, but also how its people lived, worked, prayed and fought over the centuries. Since the publication of John B. Hilling’s The Historic Architecture of Wales in 1976, there has been no other attempt at addressing the architecture of Wales as a whole, and this revised publication meets a long-felt need for a general survey of architecture in Wales. It covers two thousand years of architectural history, reflecting the nation’s life from Roman times to the present century – less a revision of the original than a complete re-writing, taking into account recent research and recent buildings. The book is illustrated with 268 colour and black-and-white photographs, drawings, plans and maps.

Book excerpt: This practical and explanatory guide for library and cultural heritage professionals introduces and explains the use of open licences for content, data and metadata in libraries and other cultural heritage organisations.
