Book Description
Excerpt from An Introduction to Early Welsh Strachan had left behind no material for the Glossary except a first rough list of words. In drawing it up use was made of a letter to Thurneysen, in which he expressed his intention to arrange the words according to their actual sounds. His only doubts were about the phonetic value of final 0, t, 12. On this point he wrote: Of course final b is common, also certain of my texts write d for d. But none of them have g for final g. In accordance with modern pronunciation, Professor Meyer considered it desirable to substitute the letter g, though the period at which final 0 became voiced has not yet been established.

Book Description
Excerpt from An Introduction to Early Welsh I think I must draw up and print outlines of middle-welsh grammar. I cannot well teach without some book, and the beginner is lost in the wilderness of the Grammatical Celtica. His original intention evidently was to publish a mere sketch of the grammar, somewhat like his old-irish Paradigms. But at the suggestion of his friend and colleague, Professor T. F. Tout, he decided to expand the Grammar on the larger and fuller lines of the present volume. At the same time the plan of adding a Reader of excerpts from mediaeval Welsh literature took concrete shape in the course of conversations and correspondence with Dr. Evans. On both these tasks he began to work during the Summer Term of 1907. With what amazing rapidity he must have toiled to have all but completed the work by the end of the following August! Giving up a visit to Germany to which he had long been looking forward, he devoted the whole long vacation to the preparation and printing of his book. At the moment of his death, on the 25th of September, both the Grammar and Reader were in type, and he had read a first, and in some cases a second, proof. Writing to Professor Thurneysen a week before his death, he says that he had then only the notes and vocabulary to add.

Book Description
Excerpt from Letters on Welsh History These letters are offered to the public in a very imperfect form, because the author has been incessantly engaged in the laborious duties and cares of life from a very early period. But he has sought for knowledge of every kind, nevertheless. Amidst such constant engagement he never found time to study grammar or the rules of composition. On these heads, therefore, the work will be open to some objections, but as to the facts and deductions he feels confident that few objections can be justly raised. They have already been subjected to the ordeal of a critical examination by learned Welshmen in his native land; men possessing every advantage from their knowledge of Welsh history to judge of their correctness.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Welsh Family From the Beginning of the 18th Century I have been able to make some additions and correo tions to the history of the Welsh Family. For the account of the district of Llangynwyd, from which they sprang, I am indebted to a very interesting work written by Mr. Evans of Llangynwyd, to whom my warm thanks are due. His history of Llangynwyd is rich in carefully collected facts which throw great light on the material and moral development of the people of that part of South Wales. I am indebted to Mr. Evans also for the introduction to Mr. Thomas of Cardiff, the accomplished artist, who has made the sketch of the old house at Tynton for me. It is a faithful representation of it in its present somewhat depressed condition, shorn of its wing, and deprived of some of its windows. The beauty of the situation in which it stands is clearly indicated. My cousin, George Ashburner (a great-grandson of George Cadogan Morgan) has converted some rough sketches made by me very long ago, into the drawings of Llandaff Cathe dral and the old house at Bridgend, which are repro duced in this book.
