The Little Book of Wales

Did You Know? Wales is the only nation in the United Kingdom not to be represented on the Union Jack. During the First World War, Cardiff was the largest coal port in the world. Guglielmo Marconi sent the first ever wireless communication over open sea - from Wales. The Little Book of Wales is an intriguing, fast-paced, fact-packed compendium of places, people and history in Wales. Here we find out about the country's food, sports, eccentric inhabitants, famous sons and daughters and literally hundreds of wacky facts (plus some authentically bizarre bits of historic trivia).A reference book and a quirky guide, this can be dipped into time and again to reveal something new about the people, the heritage, the secrets and the enduring fascination of Wales. A remarkably engaging little book, this is essential reading for visitors and locals alike.
