1903 Handbook to Abergavenny, Crickhowell, Usk and Raglan
« on: Friday 26 January 07 15:26 GMT (UK) »
This handbook was published in 1903 and has many advertisements for local businesses most with photographs.  There is also quite a bit of information about the communities mentioned especially Abergavenny.
