Following on from yesterday’s post, having received a growing number of requests, I have finally decided to release the revised version of my book ‘The Chapels of Merthyr Tydfil’ on CD or to download.
This is an updated version of the book that was released in 2013 – since that original release I have updated a lot of the entries, and even discovered a few extra chapels, that were missing from the first book…..and this time it has an index!!!! I know that the original book had a limited print run and it is very difficult to get a copy, so here’s a chance to have the updated version.
The book is almost 400 pages long, and covers every Non-conformist Chapel in the (current) Borough – from Cefn to Bedlinog, with histories and photos of almost every chapel, as well as many photos of ministers, deacons and congregations.
The price of the CD is £12.50 including postage (in the UK), or £10 to download. For CD postage abroad, contact me for prices. All profits will go to the upkeep of this blog.
If you would like a copy of the book on CD, or a link to the download please contact me at merthyr.history@gmail.com
An incredible and excellent piece of work. I can recommend this remarkable CD on chapels by Steve Brewer. It is a comprehensive survey covering all the chapels that have existed in the borough of Merthyr Tydfil and is well illustrated with a great variety of photographs, prints, pictures, ephemera and newspaper cuttings. The useful information on each chapel is so well researched that accuracy is certain. It is a fantastic reference tool and a fine tribute to an age which, although recent, is in the past.
