Excerpt from Glimpses of Welsh Life and CharacterTravellers and tourists are acquainted with the popular resorts, the mountains, the cities, and important towns of the Principality, but the remote districts of Wales are unknown to them.The population, the customs and habits of the peasantry in South Wales are familiar only to the few pedestrians or others who leave the beaten tracks and railway routes for the byways, lanes, and bridle-paths of unfrequented neighbourhoods.There the old British character, though modified by the in¿uence of ages, still retains much of its ancient individuality, and the Welsh language, together with a quaint and peculiar anglo-cymric patois, survives the great changes that affect the world.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
