This rare book is a 2008 edition of an 1872 Welsh language book by Reverend R. D. Thomas, Hanes Cymry America (A History of the Welsh in America). It was translated into English by Martha and Phillips Davies and published by the Great Plains Welsh Heritage Project of Wymore, Nebraska, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving Welsh history in America.

He also offers advice to Welsh folk contemplating the move. This is 535 pages packed with information, a goldmine for Geneaologists and family historians of Welsh descent!
