About the Book
Most kids make a pact with themselves to return at some point to a project or idea in later life. This for me was to complete the walk on the coastal path that completely envelopes the county of Pembrokeshire and, in doing so, to create a written and visual record of that journey. The history and mythology that engulf this little peninsular jutting out into the Irish Sea have always fascinated me, and I consider myself fortunate to be able to share the tale with you.
About the Author
Gwyne James was born in Pembroke, South West Wales in 1955, the eighth of ten children in Rhoscrowther, a small village in Angle Bay, all but destroyed by a blast from the local oil refinery. Leaving in 1975, gaining a first class honours degree and MA in fine art at Canterbury University, he worked in the Power Industry throughout the UK for 38 years until returning to Pembrokeshire in 2015 to concentrate on writing and painting.
