About The Dragon and the Eagle
‘The Dragon and the Eagle’ tells the remarkable story of those Welsh men and women who took the huge risk of leaving behind what they knew by starting a new life in America. Their history is relived through an enhanced eBook format, which supplements the text with a combination of images, interactive graphics, audio and video (narrated by Cerys Matthews). This creates a rich, varied reading experience while discovering the way in which Welsh emigrants became Welsh-Americans, and how they maintained their distinctive identity over four hundred years.
