About the author

Born in 1859 and dying in 1932, Jonathan Ceredig Davies was a Welsh traveller and writer whose name is closely linked with travel writing and reminiscence. He is noted in reference sources as a Welsh man of letters, and his published work shows a strong interest in recording places, people, and experiences in an accessible, personal way.

Davies is especially associated with Life, Travels and Reminiscences of Jonathan Ceredig Davies, a title that reflects the autobiographical, wide-ranging character of his writing. That blend of personal memory and observation makes his work appealing to readers who enjoy older nonfiction with a strong sense of voice.
