The Shepherd War Poet

A century after his death as a young man on a blood-soaked battlefield far from his mountain farm, Hedd Wyn's name remains seared on an entire nation's memory. His home has become a place of pilgrimage, and his story continues to sadden, anger and inspire us. This volume comprises a collection of Hedd Wyn's poems in English translation by Howard Huws with 54 striking images.
