Welsh on the Somme

Description

Cyfrol sy’n edrych ar ddigwyddiadau Brwydr Coedwig Mametz ym mis Gorffennaf 1916, pan sicrhaodd milwyr Prydain goetiroedd ardal y Somme yn Ffrainc yn ystod y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Cyflwynir manylion am y milwyr Cymreig a ymladdodd (ac a fu farw) yno, y gofeb a godwyd iddynt yno, a chanllawiau hanner dwsin o deithiau yn yr ardal.
The Battle for Mametz Wood is normally associated with the endeavours of the 38th Welsh Division and was the first of those great battles to secure possession of the woodlands of the Somme. The author looks at events after the 1st July, but also relates the story of the 17th Northern Division who attacked the quadrangle.
