Carmarthen in the Great War by Steven David John
How the experience of war impacted on the town, from the initial enthusiasm for sorting out the German kaiser in time for Christmas 1914, to the gradual realization of the enormity of human sacrifice the families of Carmathen were committed to.
Steven David John was born and bred in Laugharne, a historical Township made famous by the poet Dylan Thomas. After being educated at Laugharne and Whitland Grammar School, I trained as a mechanical engineer at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, Aberporth. I have since worked in the dairy and healthcare sectors, before moving to Shropshire to work for a well known German yoghurt producer, and due to my move have retired from my hobby of playing rugby for Laugharne. This freeing up of my spare time led me into the world of military research, and I have since set up a website detailing my research on of the war memorials in West Wales, have self published several books on local war memorials, and have had my first book, 'Carmarthen Pals' published by Pen & Sword.
