For Wales, see England: language, nationhood and identity / Martyn Ford. - Third edition. - Stroud, Gloucestershire: Amberley, 2016. - 127 pages: illustrations (some color), maps (some color); 24 cm.
In this book Martyn Ford traces the history of Welsh from the early medieval period, through the Act of Union between England and Wales in the sixteenth century, to industrial Wales in Victorian times, and then during the twentieth century where due to mass migration Wales had become a land of two cultures and thus two peoples. The Welsh language is a defining characteristic of Welsh identity and this book aims to analyse the current state of the Welsh language, its relevance to Welsh culture today and the policies which attempt to protect it.
