Welsh-language version of the volume 'The adventures and vagaries of Twm Shon Catti' by T. J. Llewelyn Prichard. The English volume was originally published in 1828 but this Welsh adaption by Eilonydd was published in 1872 by John Pryse of Llanidloes. On the following pages you can see the eight woodcuts from the volume by E. Salter.

Twm Siôn Cati or Thomas Jones (c. 1530-1609) was a native of Borthyffynnon, near Tregaron. He was a poet, antiquarian and genealogist, who served as steward of the lordship of Caron. Twm Siôn Cati is best known, however, for his reputation as a highwayman or thief. A number of folk tales and myths grew around his activities, and he was dubbed, rightly or wrongly, the 'Welsh Robin Hood' who robbed from the rich and gave to the poor.
