Jan Morris shows clearly the manners of thought of the Welch people, as well as their art, their landscapes and their folklore, their ways of earning a living, their character, their meaning and their historical destiny. Half Welsh, half English herself, Morris is a historian, a travel writer, and an essayist. All three disciplines she brings to this work--a vivid tribute to a country not just on the map or in the mind but also in the heart. \"All of us,\" Morris writes, \"have some small country there.\"\n\nAbout the Author:\n\nJan Morris is the author of such books as the Pax Britannica trilogy, Spain, Destinations, and most recently, Journeys.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0192158465\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0192158465.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Morris, Jan\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
