Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review

Dyma stori hanesydd mwyaf blaenllaw Cymru, ei lyfrau, ei gefndir yng nghefn gwlad Cymru, y bobl nodedig a’r profiadau a gafodd ar ei hynt, a chronicl hynod bersonol o’i fywyd preifat. Mae’r hunangofiant hwn gan Kenneth O. Morgan hefyd yn cwmpasu ei ymateb i weithio fel athro coleg yn Rhydychen, fel is-ganghellor ym Mhrifysgol Aberystwyth a Phrifysgol Cymru, ac fel aelod Llafur yn Nhy’r Arglwyddi ers y flwyddyn 2000 – gan olrhain ei gysylltiad hir-oes â’r Blaid Lafur, fel chyfaill agos i James Callaghan, Michael Foot, Neil Kinnock ac A. J. P Taylor.
