In late February this year, East Terrace editor James Stafford and illustrator Raluca Moldovan released ‘An Illustrated History of Welsh Rugby: Fun, Facts and Stories from 140 Years of International Rugby’.
As part of the book’s launch, Stafford featured in a webinar hosted by the National Library of Wales (Llyfrgell Genedlaethol), which you can watch below.
Stafford was joined by Lloyd Roderick (Aberystwyth University) and Gruffydd Jones (People’s Collection Wales) to discuss the book, the use of illustration and the sources used in its research.
The webinar drew attention to the vital work both the National Library and the People’s Collection Wales do in preserving the nation’s sporting and social heritage. In particular, it was mentioned how rugby fans, clubs and players can contribute directly to preserving Wales’s sporting heritage by uploading their own documents, images or artefacts.
