About This Book
The author argues that Welsh navigators led by Prince Madoc reached the Americas around 1170 A.D., and compiles historical, linguistic, and anecdotal evidence in support. He outlines Welsh migrations and language roots, surveys accounts from clergy and colonial officials, and examines reports of Welsh-speaking or Welsh-descended Native communities, including comparative place-name and cultural observations. Chapters review narratives by Morgan Jones and Charles Beatty, consider claims linking Welsh blood to various indigenous peoples, explore signs such as Freemasonry parallels, and note Welsh involvement during the American Revolution, aiming to establish a continuous Welsh influence predating later European arrivals.
