-Let's hear more about the new book -from its editor, Lyn Ebenezer. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
-As a farmhand, Ellis Williams wasn't -forced to join the army in 1914. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:12 | |
-He volunteered to face the horrors -of the Great War. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
-After the war, he put pen to paper -to write about his experiences. | 0:02:18 | 0:02:23 | |
-"We went to No Man's Land to -throw hand grenades at the Germans. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
-"They did the same to us and this -was what they called nerve testing. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:38 | |
-"When you got back to the trenches, -you'd be shaking from head to toe... | 0:02:38 | 0:02:44 | |
-"..so you were given -half a mug of rum to warm you up. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
-"It's where we first had snow but -not the snow of the old country." | 0:02:48 | 0:02:54 | |
-Ellis Williams wrote his memoirs -of the Great War during the 1960s. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:02 | |
-Last year, the author and historian, -Lyn Ebenezer... | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
-..was asked by Ellis' family to edit -the memoirs for Adref o Uffern. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:13 | |
-He was in the Battle of Mametz Wood -- the bloodiest battle of the Somme. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:19 | |
-He doesn't state the cause of his -injury but I think it was shrapnel. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:26 | |
-A bullet wound is clean but his nose -and top lip were torn off his body. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:34 | |
-Death would have been better -than for him to go home like that. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:43 | |
-"The blood poured from my face. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
-"I tried to bandage my face with -the First Aid kit from my pocket. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
-"I kept going but was weakening -due to the loss of blood. | 0:03:56 | 0:04:00 | |
-"I stopped and had to sit down. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
-"It was getting dark and a stretcher -came along and picked me up. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:11 | |
-"I don't where we went but it was -dark at the first resting station... | 0:04:12 | 0:04:17 | |
-"..and my face was swollen so much -that I couldn't see out of one eye. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:23 | |
-"I was put on the floor -with the other injured soldiers." | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
-Ellis thought that he'd go home -as a result of his injuries... | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
-..but went to a hospital in Boulogne -with an eccentric called Valadier. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:44 | |
-He had a dentist chair in his Rolls -Royce and did pioneering surgery. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:52 | |
-Ellis was one of the first -twelve people to have this surgery. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:58 | |
-They removed a rib -and used it to form a new nose. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:04 | |
-Ellis gave another rib to help them -form a nose for an Englishman. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:11 | |
-This was totally miraculous -at the time. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
-I've written, edited or translated -90 different books... | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
-..and can honestly say that no other -book has left such an impression... | 0:05:24 | 0:05:29 | |
-..than the story of Ellis Williams. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
-He was both an ordinary, -yet extraordinary man. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:39 | |
-Lyn recommends -that you read the book. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
-I don't recall my grandfather. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:18 | |
-The house was full of Welsh books. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:22 | |
-I was given a box full of letters -from my Uncle Ellis. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
-I left the box but started to read -the letters after a while. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:45 | |
-I did some research in London. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |

-# Under his banner # | 0:18:06 | 0:18:09 | |
-The initial idea came from the need -to help raise money. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:14 | |
-We thought about coffee mornings... | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-..but I'd had enough of those -with the Conservative Party! | 0:18:20 | 0:18:24 | |
-I got the idea of making a CD and I -hope we get in the Classical Charts. | 0:18:25 | 0:18:30 | |
-Having the idea is one thing... | 0:18:34 | 0:18:36 | |
-..but fulfilling that idea -is something else. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
-Yes, I fancied myself -as some kind of Bob Geldof... | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
-..who would make this CD -after making a few phone calls. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:52 | |
-I have to admit -that it's a lot of work... | 0:18:54 | 0:18:57 | |
-..and very difficult to co-ordinate -twelve different groups. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:03 | |
-It's even more complicated -when you think of the geography... | 0:19:03 | 0:19:08 | |
-..the cross-section of contributors -and quality of singers... | 0:19:08 | 0:19:12 | |
-..but the response was enthusiastic -to say the least! | 0:19:13 | 0:19:17 | |

-From the Monmouth Male Voice Choir -to the Ysgol Gymraeg y Fenni choir. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:35 | |
-Most of the children are -from non-Welsh speaking households. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:41 | |
-It will be wonderful to see Welsh -traditions in the town and Maes... | 0:20:41 | 0:20:46 | |
-..and hearing the Welsh language -on our streets during that week. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:52 | |
-Our children don't get -the opportunity to hear it often. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:57 | |
-I like the Eisteddfod because few -people speak Welsh in Abergavenny. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:02 | |
-During the Eisteddfod, a lot of -people will speak Welsh in the town. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:08 | |
-I'm excited about the Eisteddfod as -my aunt doesn't speak Welsh a lot. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:14 | |

-I teach at Ysgol Gymraeg y Fenni and -from a non-Welsh speaking family... | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |

-We've made a CD -and I hope people enjoy it. | 0:21:51 | 0:21:54 | |
