Excerpt from The War and Wales Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford Fellow of the British Academy. The fog Of war hides much from our eyes besides the incidents Of the long-drawn struggle on the battlefields Of Europe, and not least the silent but momentous changes which are taking place in the minds of men, whether belligere'nts or neutrals. It is probable that in few, if any, Of the countries affected by the war are these Changes deeper or more pregnant with consequences than in Wales. The interpreter of the Welsh spirit has need Of the gift Of divination in no scant measure if he is to grasp its secrets. Dr. Morgan has thus set himself no easy task in the present volume. But he was well equipped for the effort, for it will hardly be denied that his knowledge of Welsh char acter is Of the most intimate. In his previous writings he has Shown himself a candid friend Of his countrymen, and played a part which demands no small moral courage; for it is the prophet who prophesies smooth things who alone finds honour in his own country. It is good to know, however, that Dr. Morgan supplies the exception which proves the truth of this rule and the reason doubtless is that even those who do not see eye to eye with him cannot grudge him the recognition that he possesses, not only candour of expression, but the deeper and more valuable candour of mind - the temper which impels a man to see things as they are.

In Wales at War, Stuart Broomfield examines how World War II affected Wales and its people. He includes its role as a strategic refuge, attitudes to the conflict, air raids and the crisis in the coal industry. He also seeks to explain why the Labour Party did so well there in the General Election of 1945, despite Winston Churchill's status as victorious war-leader.

This study is the first thorough analysis of the extent of the opposition to the Great War in Wales, and is the most extensive study of the anti-war movement in any part of Britain. It is, therefore, a significant contribution to our understanding of people’s responses to the conflict, and the difficulty of mobilising the population for total war. The anti-war movement in Wales and beyond developed quickly from the initial shock of the declaration of war, to the civil disobedience of anti-war activists and the industrial discontent excited by the Russian Revolution and experienced in areas such as the south Wales coalfield in 1917. The differing responses to the war within Wales are explored in this book, which charts how the pacifist tradition of nineteenth-century Welsh Nonconformity was quickly overturned. The two main elements of the anti-war movement are analysed in depth: the pacifist religious opposition, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, and the Nonconformist dissidents who were particularly influential in north and west Wales; and the political opposition concentrated in the Independent Labour Party and among the radical left within the South Wales Miners’ Federation.
