Great article in the City Journal about - ' The unjustly neglected Rhys Davies ( who ) wrote about human frailty with compassion.'
Here is the opening paragraph :- ' W hen I was young my father owned a factory in Tonypandy, a town in the Rhondda Valley of South Wales. He always disparaged the character of the Welsh, for whom I therefore conceived an affection that has remained with me ever since. You may be said truly to like a people when you are aware of their imperfections and are fond of them still. If one can be a patriot of a country not ones own, I am a Welsh patriot. '
