Remember Senghenydd - The Colliery Disaster of 1913
Roedd tua 950 o lowyr yn gweithio'n ddwfn o dan y ddaear o dan bentref Senghennydd, ger Caerffili, ar 14 Hydref 1913, pan fu tanchwa yn Nglofa'r Universal. Yn dilyn misoedd o waith gan dîmau achub, sylweddolwyd bod 439 glowr wedi marw. Mae'r gyfrol hon yn adrodd hanes Senghennydd cyn y drychineb yn 1913, yn ogystal â hanes y danchwa yn 1901 a laddodd 81 glöwr.
