(New edition of Welsh language novelist Daniel Owen's shorter fiction, stories and poetry in the original Welsh; incorporating Y Siswrn)"Pa fath bobol, syr, ydach chi yn ein galw ni y Cymry? Slaves dienaid a di-ynni yr ydw i yn 'u galw nhw, yn diodde y pla yma ers oesoedd. Mi fyddaf yn synnu na fasen ni ers talwm wedi codi fel un gŵr i ymlid y lot ddiog hyn oddi ar ein porfeydd Maent yn cas u ein hiaith, ac wedi gneud eu gorau i'n cael dan draed y Saeson, ac ar yr un pryd y maent yn bwyta braster ein gwlad a chynnyrch ein tiroedd-a ninnau a'n llaw wrth ein het iddynt am neud hynny "Daniel Owen oedd awdur rhyddiaith bwysicaf ei oes. Er mai am nofelau y cofir ef yn bennaf, ysgrifennodd hefyd nifer o weithiau byrrach arfurf straeon byrion ac ysgrifau; roedd hefyd yn fardd achlysurol.Casglwyd rhai o'r gweithiau hyn mewn cyfrol yn 1886 yn Y Siswrn, a brofodd yn un o gyhoeddiadau mwyaf poblogaidd y bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg. Mae'r gyfrol hon yn cynnwys holl gynnwys Y Siswrn, gan gynnwys stori fer orau'r awdur, Yr Ysmygwr, ynghyd a nifer fawr o weithiau ychwanegol na chawsant eu cyhoeddi erioed o'r blaen ar ffurf cyfrol."...tour de force, camp anghyffredin mewn maes hollol ddieithr iddo."-Saunders Lewis, am Yr Ysmygwr

(New edition of the Welsh short story collection Straeon y Pentan by renowned novelist Daniel Owen)"Wyst di be," ebe Wil wrthyf un diwrnod, "mi leiciwn farw yr un funud 'r hen Burgess yma.""Pam hynny?" ebe fi. "Am fod ganddo gymin' i'w aped amdano," ebe Wil, "a thra y bydden nhw yn trin ei g s o mi fedrwn snecio i'r nefoedd heb i neb sylwi."Daniel Owen, heb os oedd nofelydd mwyaf adnabyddus y bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg. Profodd ei nofelau, gan gynnwys Rhys Lewis ac Enoc Huws yn fwy poblogaidd gyda beirniaid a'r cyhoedd na rhai unrhyw nofelydd Cymraeg cyn hynny. Codwyd cofgolofn iddo yn yr Wyddgrug, Sir y Fflint, y dref honno yr oedd mor hoff ohoni a lle bu fyw ar hyd ei oes.Cyhoeddwyd Straeon y Pentan gyntaf yn 1895 a hon oedd cyfrol olaf yr awdur, eto, dyma un o'r casgliadau cyntaf o straeon byrion i gael ei gyhoeddi fel cyfrol bwrpasol yn yr iaith Gymraeg, os nad y cyntaf. Straeon digrif, straeon rhamantus, straeon ysbryd, portreadau hoffus, a straeon am anifeiliaid: mae ystod y pedwar ar bymtheg o straeon yn eithriadol o eang ac yn dangos diddordeb yr awdur yn holl ystod cymeriadau ei gymdeithas a'i oes.

In 1853, a wagon train camped in the Eastern Oregon desert, 130 miles from the Oregon Trail. Uncertain of their whereabouts and in desperate need of supplies, they sent a scouting party over the mountains for help. This is the true story of Elijah Elliott's "Advance Party." Becoming lost in the Three Sisters Wilderness, they tell their own story of starvation and loyalty through two parallel diaries. Known as the Lost Rescue, the scouting party was the first known group of Euro-Americans to cross the Cascade Mountains through the Three Sisters Wilderness Area.The Lost Rescue contains a complete history of the Meek Cutoff. In 1845, while facing threats from the Walla Walla and Cayuse Nations, Stephen Meek led 1,050 men, women and children into the wilderness, seeking a short-cut across the Eastern Oregon desert. Poorly supplied and facing a mysterious illness, they forged a new path through the desert. In 1853, Elijah Elliott attempted to lead a large group on the same cutoff. After a costly wrong turn, Elliott found himself at the mercy of an angry mob. As they journeyed west, the starving train made their own way across the desert, facing hunger and intense thirst. In an act of desperation, the emigrants set their animals free, and followed them to the distant waters of the Deschutes River.

"Mae arnaf flys ysgrifennu hanes fy mywyd fy hun, nid i eraill, ond i mi fy hun; ac yn sicr nid i'w argraffu, ond yn hytrach fel math o hunan-gymundeb." Er protestiadau Rhys Lewis mae ei hunangofiant ar gael dros ganrif ers ei chyhoeddi. Disgrifia Rhys Lewis ei fywyd adref gyda'i fam a'i frawd Bob, yn yr ysgol dan law llym Robyn y Sowldiwr, fel prentis yn siop Abel Hughes ac fel myfyriwr yng Ngholeg y Bala cyn cael ei benodi'n Weinidog Capel Bethel. Mae'r penodau yng nghwmni Wil Bryan a Thomas Bartley yn hwyliog a doniol ond mae tristwch mawr yng nghefndir teulu'r Lewisiaid - perthynas Robert a Mary, damwain erchyll Bob yn y pwll glo a salwch Rhys ar ol dychwelyd i Bethel. Roedd Daniel Owen, 1836-1895, yn deiliwr yn Yr Wyddgrug ac yn disgrifio'i gymdeithas ar ddiwedd y 19eg Ganrif.

The Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) is one of the longest established and more controversial of the common policies of the EC. It deals principally with the management of fishery resources, relations between the EC and third States in fisheries matters, the marketing of and trade in fishery products, financial assistance to the fisheries sector, and aquaculture. However, the CFP is not just a matter for those with an economic interest in fisheries. It also raises many issues of more general concern, such as the capacity of the EC and its Member States to manage important natural resources sustainably, the impact of fishing on the wider marine environment, and relations between developed and developing States. This book addresses the CFP from a legal perspective. It provides a detailed account of the very large body of EC law comprising the CFP, and draws on the European Commission's associated documents to aid interpretation and add context. As a result, the book will be of value to anyone wanting knowledge of the law of the CFP. Although not addressing the Commission's 2009 Green Paper on reform of the CFP, the book should provide a useful reference point against which to view the reform of parts of the CFP that is anticipated to take place over the next few years.
