Beyond the Pampas: In Search of Patagonia

Serving as both a travelogue and a history of the Welsh settlers in Patagonia — and the indigenous people with whom they interacted — this account describes how Welsh settlers have been integrated into Argentinean society. It also tells how certain aspects of Welsh culture, including the language, have been retained. Providing a unique perspective on colonialism, religious oppression, and the pioneer spirit, this fascinating book includes the author's personal story of resolving longstanding issues of an abusive childhood during visits to Patagonia.
