Perihal e-buku ini

In this kaleidoscopic portrait, John Geraint captures with a filmmaker's eye the exuberant life of this former mining community in changing times. Comic and evocative, the book shows how the values the valley has lived by could guide the Rhondda - and the wider world - towards a better future.
