| Abstract
|
:
|
This book is based in large part on fieldwork that I conducted in Brittany and Wales in 1983 and 1985. I am hopeful that this book will help stimulate more interest in the Celtic languages and culture, and assist, even in a small way, those in Wales and Brittany who struggle to keep their language and culture strong.
