		Owen Glendower himself also appears as Glyn Dwr and Glendourdy, as Owen ap Griffith Fychan, and as the Prince of Wales.
		Glendower, of course, is familiar as a character from Henry IV, Part One, a fact which gives one a little grounding in this vast canvas, but it is clear at once that Powys's Glendower is more Welsh, more authentic, more tragic and more mythical than Shakespeare's, who is usually played for laughs.
		The fate of the real Owen Glendower, according to the DNB, is uncertain; after waging a war of independence against the English through Wales and the borders for nearly 20 years, with varying success, he vanishes from the records.

		Scott’s novel, set like Owen Glendower in the fifteenth century, also narrates the journey of a young man seeking adventure in unruly times, who gets closely entangled in the affairs of princes, and is responsible for the safety of beautiful young ladies.

		The immediate occasion was a quarrel with his neighbor Lord Grey of Ruthin, an English border baron; but deeper causes of the national upheaval that followed lay in Welsh antagonism toward their English overlords, Welsh resentment of unjust English laws and administration, and widespread economic discontent.
		Owen, proclaimed (1400) prince of Wales by his followers, kept the revolt against Henry IV of England burning for years.
		The defeat of the Percys at the battle of Shrewsbury in 1403 (in which Owen did not take part) was only a temporary setback for the Welsh leader.

	September 20th
		For some years, fortune favoured Glendower's arms, and having taken prisoner his enemy Lord Grey, he compelled him to ransom himself by the payment of a large sum of money, and give one of his daughters in marriage to his captor.
		With Sir Edmund Mortimer and the Northumbrian Percies, Glendower formed a close alliance, and so sanguine were the expectations of the confederacy, that they formally partitioned among themselves the whole dominions of Henry IV, the country to the west of the Severn being assigned as the share of the Welsh champion.
		After the battle of Shrewsbury, however, in which his allies, the Percies, were overthrown, his star of success appears to have waned, and having sustained two signal defeats in 1405, he was compelled for a time to wander up and down the country, with a few faithful followers, concealing himself in remote and untravelled districts.
