He chronicled the history, character and folklore of Monmouthshire, which he also called Gwent, in a series of nearly 800 newspaper articles and several books published between the 1920s and 1960s of which this 1964 publication is one. The vanishing folklore and customs of Monmouthshire were of particular interest to Hando. Photo of our book is shown.
