  Arguably the most famous road in Wales, the A470 is 186 miles from shore to shore through the backbone of Wales, linking north to south. From the seashore to slate quarries, from nuclear power stations and fighter plane flypasts to forests, mountains and the capital city.
  
  Travelling through memory, myth, love and grief, we learn lessons, ache for match tickets, stitch ourselves together and encounter famous goats.
  
  O bosib y ffordd fwyaf adnabyddus yng Nghymru, mae'r A470 yn ymestyn am 186 milltir o arfordir y gogledd i arfordir y de trwy ganol Cymru. Ar ei hyd gwelir traethau a chwareli, atomfa ac awyrennau rhyfel, mynyddoedd a'n prifddinas. Yn y gyfrol hon cawn 51 o gerddi gwreiddiol, wedi'u cyfieithu o'r Gymraeg, neu i'r Gymraeg, i greu casgliad dwyieithog sydd yn ein harwain ar hyd yr A470.
  
  Cawn ein tywys trwy atgofion, chwedlau, cariad a galar, dysgwn wersi, rhannwn docynnau gêm, pwythwn frodwaith ein gwlad a gwylio'r geifr.

  This cultural, political, and social history of tea presents a “fascinating picture of tea's impact on the lives of millions of people around the world.” (Publishers Weekly)   From Darjeeling to Lapsang Souchon, from India to Japan—a fresh, concise, world-encompassing exploration of the way tea has shaped politics, culture, and the environment throughout history. From the fourth century BC in China, where it was used as an aid in Buddhist meditation, to the Boston Tea Party in 1773, to its present-day role as the most consumed substance on the planet, the humble Camellia plant has had profound effects on civilization. Renowned cultural anthropologist Alan MacFarlane and Iris MacFarlane recount the history of tea from its origin in the eastern Himalayas and explains, among other things, how tea became the world's most prevalent addiction, how tea was used as an instrument of imperial control, and how the cultivation of tea drove the industrial revolution. Both an absorbing narrative and a fascinating tour of some of the world's great cultures—Japan, China, India, France, Britain, and others—The Empire of Tea brings into sharp focus one of the forces that shaped history.   "A good primer on a resonant and endlessly stimulating subject.” —Boston Sunday Globe   “A fascinating picture of tea's impact on the lives of millions of people around the world.” —Publishers Weekly   “An absorbing read.” —Kirkus Reviews
