Disgrifiad Saesneg / English Description

Siôn Jobbins walks a tightrope between being thought-provoking and provocative. He writes of the treachery of the Blue Books report of the 19th century and its continuing effect; the invention of St Dwynwen's Day; Welsh-language pirate radio in the 1960s; language protests; the changing Welshness of Cardiff and Swansea and the idea of a new Welsh royal family.

Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review

His style is witty, engaging and occasionally angry. His explanations are never patronising or laborious. These chapters first appeared in Cambria magazine. ‘This book does the job it sets out to do perfectly. The perceived audience is the reader who needs to approach Welsh nationhood through the English language, and who may be anywhere on the wide spectrum of national Welsh consciousness, or indeed a visitor from England or elsewhere. Many Welsh-speakers, too, will find material here they were not aware or, or need reminding of.’ Ned Thomas
