"Who are the Welsh? They lived in England before the English came. Their race--the Celts--were powerful centuries before Christ. They have their own language and culture--why not their own state? Home Rule for Wales was first proposed in the House of Commons in 1844. In 1904, Winston Churchill advocated Welsh independence. For over forty years, the Plaid Cymru party has worked for the cause of Welsh nationalism... Yet even today we read of Welshmen who forgo their civil rights because they are denied the use of Welsh! Small wonder that some have turned to violence, that the Free Wales Army, whose actions shock newspaper readers, have burst upon the scene. The struggle continues. Plaid Cymru have a member in Parliament, Mr Gwynfor Evans, and the Nationalists confidently believe that they are gaining ground. Mr Ellis gives an exciting and human account of the Welsh battles, plus illuminating chapters on the other Celtic peoples, that no reader should ignore."
