A History of Wales by John Davies
Traces the history of Wales from the earliest times to the present day, from the first Welshman at Ffynnan Bueno to the miners' strike, from the Red Lady of Paviland to the establishment of the Welsh TV channel, from the end of the Ice Age to the general election of 1987.
Davies, John: - John Davies was born and raised in Port Talbot, South Wales, and began writing in 2002 when he retired after thirty years as a chemist with BP Chemicals, Baglan Bay. John says that he only started writing for children after his granddaughter Freya was born in 2010. John now has two other grandchildren: Ayla, born in February 2013, and Osian, born in December 2015. John has previously published works with a strong Welsh influence, including Hewl: Stori Geraint Griffiths and Chester to Chepstow, and the children's picture book, Trevor the One-Eyed Tractor. Darren the Dragon, published in 2013, was the first of a popular series of children's books released by John. A further five books have been released since, the most recent being Darren and the Drought. John also published his first children's poetry collection, How to be a Dog, in 2014, with another poetry collection in 2016. John intends to concentrate on these genres, as he believes they satisfy his childish nature!
