For 200 years Burke’s has been the most prestigious
name in heritage publishing. Our famous Peerage
and Landed Gentry titles have long been the first
port of call for those seeking information on British
aristocracy, and now they have been opened up to a
whole new readership.
Burke’s continue to deal with people of distinction,
but times have changed and modern Britain is a
meritocracy. Movers and shakers of today owe
their positions to a great deal more than hereditary
circumstance, and Burke’s recognise and celebrate this
fact in this new publication.
Volumes III The Principality of Wales and IV The
North West, published together in a single clothbound
volume, are a celebration of successful men and
women from all walks of life. Detailed listings of more
than 5,000 people are included: prominent public
figures, decision-makers, leading professionals, captains
of industry, academics, celebrities, sports stars and
many more. This publication also retains its historic
role as the chronicle of aristocracy, with genealogies of
our noble families going back hundreds of years.
A compendium of key people in Wales and The North
West and an invaluable reference source for both
home and office; no bookshelf is complete without it.
