How Green Was My Valley


How Green Was My Valley"

Richard Llewellyn



This is the story of a Welsh coal-mining family at about the turn of thd Twentieth Century as narrated by the youngest son, Huw Morgan.

I felt a great sympathy for Huw and his entire family, in spite of the males' proclivity for fighting - settling scores with their fists.

The story was beautiful and poignant. The author's gift of storytelling is obvious. This was a wonderful book altogether.
