New and Improved AmeriCymru Bookstore
.
Our more eagle-eyed members will have noticed that the AmeriCymru Bookstore has undergone a major remodelling over the last few days. The old categories and navigation were somewhat confusing and for various reasons we felt that a reorganisation was in order.
Of course, this means that we will have to re add a great many titles that were formerly listed. Please feel free to suggest titles in comments below. The bookstore is a work in progress and we will be adding a significant number of titles every day over the next week or so.
Additionally we will be featuring a 'Book of the Day' from the store. Todays title is The Day Aberystwyth Stood Still by Malcolm Pryce.
New weekly category feature pages on the AmeriCymru Bookstore. More new features and improvements to come. Keep checking back

@Brett Dioch
There will be a Welsh language learners section and a Welsh language literature section by the end of the week. And both those titles will be included.
@SJ I hear you
And as far as contemporary stuff goes I want to follow the normal procedure and categorise by genre. I think though, that it would be nice to do something different and allow people to easily follow the historical development of Welsh literature and popular fiction by categorising by decade. Just as you say, I might have to enter many titles twice in order to ensure that they are where people expect to find them. Worth doing imho.
Ceri, The following Welsh Language books are available on Amazon for Kindle>
Essential Welsh Grammar: Teach Yourself (TY Complete Grammar) [Kindle Edition]
Complete Welsh: Teach Yourself (TY Complete Courses) by Julie Brake and Christine Jones
A Welsh-English Pocket Dictionary by William Richards
Exercise away....all suggestions gratefully recieved
Yeah they were on there but they were buried as was almost everything else as a consequence of the shoddy categorisation ( mea culpa ). I'm seriously thinking of subdividing the 'Classics of Yesteryear' category ( which I've already created and added to, Richard Llewelllyn and Alexander Cordell are in there ) by publication date. Probably by decade. So we would have a section for the 1930's, 40's etc. Only slight problem with that is that I have to have a cutoff point i.e. a date after which titles appear in contemporary fiction or short stories or whatever. I'm thinking 1980 onwards? Any observations?
Diolch SJ...we know all about them, and will probably add a 'Classics of Yesteryear' category some time this week. Right now we are concentrating more on contemporary stuff.
