Siôn Jobbins walks a tightrope between being thought-provoking and provocative. He writes of the treachery of the Blue Books report of the 19th century and its continuing effect; the invention of St Dwynwen's Day; Welsh-language pirate radio in the 1960s; language protests; the changing Welshness of Cardiff and Swansea and the idea of a new Welsh royal family. Reprint; first published 2011.

Mae Siôn Jobbins weithiau'n troedio'r ffin denau rhwng pryfocio a chythruddo. Yn y gyfrol hon mae'n sôn am Frad y Llyfrau Gleision ac effaith barhaus yr adroddiad; dyfeisio Dydd Santes Dwynwen; radio answyddogol Cymraeg y 1960au; yr angen am brotestiadau iaith; Cymreictod cyfnewidiol Caerdydd ac Abertawe, a'r posibilrwydd o gael teulu brenhinol Cymreig newydd. Adargraffiad.
