Description: How Green Was My Valley by Richard Llewellyn (Hardcover, 1940) Dust cover shows wear and has writing on the front. Book itself and pages are in excellent condition. See pictures for details. From the inside flaps: The Morgan family depends on mining in the late 19th century, when South Wales still prospered and coal dust had not blackened the valley. The story is told by Huw, one of the youngest of the Morgan children. It is an evocative portrait - of an era when whole towns eked a living out of the dark, poorly ventilated coal mines - when lonely wives waited fearfully each day for the news that their husbands or sons had been trapped in a cave- in. Huw recalls vividly the day his mother received that news about her husband, and the effect it had on the rest of the family. He also tells of his eldest brother's marriage - to the beautiful girl Huw was destined to love all his life. But alongside the heartbreaks and tragedies there are the joys of family gatherings and the happiness of first love - all seasoned with the crisp, salty Welsh humor that makes this book such a pleasure to read.
