Welsh Country
Welsh Country Magazine and Americymu , an American Welsh Social Network, have teamed up to present a competition to win a year's free subscription to Welsh Country magazine and a copy of 'Stories in Welsh Stone', signed by the author, Geoff Brookes.
For details of the contest, a series of simple Welsh trivia questions which people from Wales should find fairly straightforward , but maybe send those born outside Wales scurrying to their encyclopedia or Wikipedia, go to:- http://americymru.ning.com/
AmeriCymru ( http://americymru.ning.com ) is a Welsh American social network for people of Welsh birth, Welsh heritage or who simply have an interest in Wales and things Welsh around the world. Members come from Wales, the United States, Canada, Australia, England, Argentina, Uruguay, Korea, France and almost everywhere in the 'Welsh "diaspora'.

Geoff Brookes' Stories in Welsh Stone tells fifteen tragic tales of murder and betrayal as revealed on the gravestones of various Welsh country churches. As the author says, "These gravestones are not just curiosities. They represent past lives and tell stories we should not forget. We owe it to those involved to remember what happened."
"Ian Mole at Welsh Country approached us with the idea for the Welsh trivia contest and it just seemed like a natural fit. Geoff Brookes was kind enough to send us a review copy of his book and it's absolutely fantastic. We're very impressed with the magazine, it looks like something a lot of our members and readers would really like, especially if you haven't yet had the pleasure of travelling to Wales and want to see a bit of what's there," said AmeriCymru founder, Ceri Shaw, "We're looking forward to doing a lot more with Welsh Country."
