'A comprehensive yet magical love letter to Wales; a great gift for anyone who has fallen under Cymru's spell!' - Hanan Issa, National Poet of Wales'A delightful, informative compendium of Welsh language, landscapes, traditions and folklore. The Welsh Almanac is sure to be a fixture on my desk!' - Sophie Keetch, author of The Morgan Trilogy'The Welsh Almanac feels like a lovely, warm cwtch. I was reminded of how unique and beautiful Wales is, with all its history, culture and traditions. I could feel the beauty of Wales in each month and chapter, and definitely some hiraeth! A wonderful, accessible and enjoyable way to discover more about this magical country.' - Catrin Stewart
