Couverture du Jan Morris: Wales (ePUB)

Jan Morris’s magnificent book celebrates Wales and all things Welsh. Written as a deeply personal study, it reflects the rich bilingual literature and folklore of Wales, the buildings and wonderfully varied landscapes, the national character and humour, the historical predicaments and the political condition of this small but extraordinary country. Jan Morris is a distinguished historian as well as being one of the world’s leading travel-writers. Her passionate love of Wales makes this a unique evocation.
