W. E. Jones was a known printer, writer and poet. In his Welsh romantic prose ‘Y bardd, neu, y meudwy Cymreig’ or ‘The Bard, or the Welsh Hermit’ Jones presents a host of imaginary descriptions of various international travels, including the journey from one place to the next and the locations themselves. The volume has been referred to as the first Welsh novel, yet it does not possess the attributes of a novel.
