Trade Review'Tony Brown's new edition of The Dragon has Two Tongues(University of Wales Press, GBP9.99) brings back into print an important text which all students of Welsh writing in English must read if they are to understand how this body of literature came into being as a result of the linguistic and critical shifts of the early twentieth century... Expertly and sympathetically edited, the book has kept its relevance in remarkable ways, not least in the percipience of its critical assessment of major Welsh writers, and in the simulating nature of many of its conclusions.'
