In this completely
revised and updated verstion of his "David Thomas: Man of Iron", Dr. Peter
Williams takes us back to the days of mass Welsh emigration to the United States. The
terrible conditions at home, which sparked the Chartist riots, are described, to put into
context the reasons for this difficult transatlantic flight. Though David Thomas's
correspondence with .Wales, Dr. Williams shows the Welshman's immense contribution to the
industrialisation and economic growth of America.
