I cannot praise enough this series as good as last years History Month series, hopefully this series will be produced as a book too and placed in all Welsh Schools and Libraries. I had intended myself to work on a book to be called The Good, Bad and Ugly of Welsh History but despite some research it is now another project I have to abandon, time as run out. Anyone out there who wants to take this idea up your welcome to do so and I am quite happy to pass on my research material to assist getting the project published. I expect no financial gain or even credits, never have so why start now? Further, to such project and as suggestion to perhaps further subjects for future Western Mail Heroes and Villains series note:
Good/Bad? HUGH OWEN The Catholic Conspirator.
Good/Bad? DAI CANTWR Radical 'Extremist' Rebeccite.
Bad/Ugly? BARTI DDU Pirate and Slaver.
