Seneddwr ar Dramp - Rhys J. Davies - 1935 (Preloved)

Seneddwr ar Dramp (which translates to "A Senator on the Tramp" or "An MP on the Roam") is a travelogue and memoir written by the Welsh politician Rhys John Davies (1877–1954). The book is a collection of Davies' observations and impressions of the foreign countries he visited during his time as a Member of Parliament.

Rhys J. Davies was a significant figure in Welsh and British politics. Born in Llangennech, he worked as a farm labourer and coal miner before becoming a prominent trade union official and eventually the MP for Westhoughton (a seat he held for 30 years). As a dedicated pacifist, trade unionist, and humanitarian, his travel writing often focuses on the social conditions, political climates, and the lives of ordinary workers in the countries he toured.
