Photographic History of Mining in South Wales, A - John O'Sullivan
Roedd yng nghymoedd de Cymru rai o'r meysydd glo gorau'n y byd. Erbyn cyrraedd yr ugeinfed ganrif fodd bynnag, roedd cannoedd o'r pyllau glo, ac eithrio un, wedi cau, gan greu diweithdra enbyd a difetha cymunedau cyfain. Mae'r gyfrol hon yn gofnod ffotograffig o'r cyfnod rhyfeddol hwn yn hanes Cymru.
English Description: The south Wales Valleys once boasted the richest coalfields and the best anthracite coal in the world. Before the dawn of the twenty-first century all but one of the hundreds of coal pits were closed, destroying jobs and whole communities. This book provides a photographic record of the coalfield during this extraordinary period in Welsh history.
