Reviews
This book is the appropriate history of a movement. This publication is not just a history book among many others but a re-telling of the story in a way our ancestors would have done from generation to generation.
- The Rt. Rev. Dom Daniel OCSO, Abbot of Caldey
he book is invaluable. There are so many people for whom it is important reading. I know of no other volumewhich gives such a comprehensive, sympathetic and non-partisan understandingand overview of the history of Welsh Christianity and faces so honestly thepresent realities and challenges.
- The Very Rev. Archimandrite Father Deiniol of Manod
A great strength of this book is that it treats the political history of Wales and its Christian experience as closely intertwined... [Morgans) has written this book, which seeks to treat all forms of the faith fairly, because he thinks that they can all claim its history as their own, and learn its lessons. This absorbing study is accompanied by scores of photos by Peter Noble of places associated with the Christian faith.
- Rt Revd Lord Harries of Pentregarth, Church Times
This readable and well-illustrated work offers a departure from the usual analysis of the history of Christianity in Wales... The story is very well told, and shows a refreshingly critical approach without excessive bias. It seems to challenge the reader to consider the importance of place – in a commercial age, is there still room for a uniquely Welsh Christian experience, drawing on a rich and varied heritage? The authors of this attractive book certainly think so, and give their readers much food for thought.

Our Holy Ground is a timely survey of the Welsh Christian experience, as seen through the eyes of two wise and experienced pastors, raised and nurtured in the Welsh reformed tradition.
- Rev. Andrew Sully, IWA Magazine
Our Holy Ground gives us fresh understanding of the nation... [Morgans'] knowledge and passion are revealed in the clarity of his writing and the honesty of his judgment. This book is worth reading by Scottish, English and Welsh who will learn more about Wales' bond with Christianity but also see their different histories and religious experiences in a new light.
- Tony Burnham, Reform Magazine
An outstanding review of the tradition and contribution of the chapel to the survival of the Welsh language and as a social pressure group.
- John Morris, Y Clawdd
Myn yr awduron bod y gyfrol hon ar gyfer pawb sy'n byw yng Nghymru ag sydd â diddordeb yn stori neilltuol y gwahanol genhedloedd sy'n byw ar yr ynysoedd hyn. Iddynt hwy mae parhad y traddodiad Cristnogol Cymreig yn mynd i ddibynnu ar barodrwydd y tri phrif raniad o fewn y traddodiad hwnnw, sef Catholigiaeth, Alicaniaeth ac Anghydffurfiaeth, i gydnabod dilysrwydd ei gilydd o fewn Corff Crist. Dyma gyfrol gwerth cael golwg arni.
