I've been given two books from my wishlist as birthday gifts. One is "Wales in the Golden Age of Picture Postcards" by David Gwynn which has some very funny examples of visitors to Wales being bamboozled by the Welsh language. Another is "Empire of the Summer Moon" by S C Gwynne (could he be of Welsh extraction, I wonder?) about the rise and fall of the Comanche Empire.

And I've received a really nice e-mail from William Knox who wrote "The Pan-Celtic Phrasebook" which inspired (if that word is apt!) The Carmarthen Underground. And the e-mail was in Welsh.
