O knihe
The book is my attempt to convey my affection for Borth-y-Gest by using photographs of my childhood and also using postcards which I have collected over the years.The postcards show vividly the development of Borth-y-Gest over the years from a thriving ship building community, to a prosperous Bed and Breakfast beach holiday resort and through to today where a majority of the properties are second holiday homes people visit as day trippers.
The text conveys a little history of the village as well as some family history.My grandfather sailed in the old sailing ships to Europe and the Americas having survived a shipwreck in the Atlantic Ocean.
My mother was working in the offices of the Slate Quarries which housed valuable crown painting during the war and later worked in a solicitors office belonging Lloyd George's brother.
