Sir John Pryce of Newtown Hall died in 1761. He kept the embalmed
bodies of his first two wives on either side of his bed - until his
third wife insisted that they were removed. In 1856 Ronald Rhys
from the Vale of Neath disappeared for a week after seeing a
strange light in a field and hearing a loud noise. He remembered
being examined by small creatures who took a sample of his blood.

Mid Wales remains untouched. It is an expansive and peaceful
region, stretching across Wales from Cardigan Bay to the English
border, a place to reflect and relax and discover the fascinating
secrets of Paradwys Cymru, the paradise of Wales. Here are the
significant moments in Welsh history, the politics and the murder,
the ruined mansions and abbeys, and the forgotten battlefields.

border, where Wales and England mix across Offa's Dyke and then
reach out into the heart of Wales where the Welsh language rules.
From the Victorian splendour of Llandrindod Wells to the serenity

Swansea has long been a busy industrial port and has always had an
edgy history. Explore the hidden stories from its long and
dangerous past, with tales of rebellion, shipwreck and murder. From
Romans to the Red Lady, Viking raids to English attacks, deadly
diseases, slums, cholera and Nazi bombs, you'll never see the city
in the same way again. Why were all those men trapped in the hold
when the Caesar hit the rocks at Pwlldu? What happened when Hitler

this and more awaits you within.
Up to ten per cent of the population is believed to suffer from
some form of dyspraxia. Accessible and engaging, this practical
guide provides teachers with tips and techniques for teaching
students with dyspraxia. There are symptoms, there are problems,

that can lead to positive outcomes. And while it is important to
understand where it comes from, providing support and guidance is
what this book is all about. From the introduction, this book will
prove invaluable reading for everyone who works with young people.

Swansea has a dangerous past. As a seaport, the town confronted the
unknown on a daily basis. In this book, we explore the dark
underbelly of South Wales; from the dirty, lawless docks to the
narrow, festering slums of the alleyways. Little Martha Nash,
Claire Phillips, Peter Moitch... all met their sad end within these
streets. Even where the town meets the countryside is no safer. It
is this idyllic landscape that was home to Muriel Drinkwater and
Eleanor Williams, both of whom were tragically killed. Swansea is
alive with the memories of its crimes; from unfortunate sailors to
jealous husbands and vengeful employees, Geoff Brookes' well
researched and compelling book presents a selection of some of the
most famous crimes. Each case is analysed and the key facts
outlined; some were closed. Many remain unresolved, and their
stories linger still. You will never look at Swansea the same way
again.
