He rode in the Charge of the Light Brigade and lived to joke about it. Lord Tredegar's collected wit gathers the Welsh peer's epigrammatic eloquence, memories of Balaclava, quips at the servants' ball, and genial roastings of dignitaries of every rank, harvested from a lifetime of speeches. Courage in youth, comedy ever after. Meet the best-loved talker in Wales.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
