By the time that war erupted in Europe in August 1914, Carmarthenshire had moved from its rural roots into a new industrial age, with great coalfields around the Amman and Gwendraeth valleys, and the coal, tin and steelworks around Llanelli and Kidwelly. This book covers the lives and deaths of many of the brave young men that left the county.
