Set against the background of the Chartist rebellion, LAND OF MY FATHERS
is a heartfelt evocation of the greatest iron town in the world, Merthyr, and of the
people who made it so: foundry-owners and workers, immigrants, fortune-hunters,
idealists, prostitutes and wastrels.
It is also the story of one man, Taliesin Roberts, robust, determined, passionate -
and of a three-sided love that will never die.
