What do the Manic Street Preachers, Desmond Llewellyn (James Bond's Q), Neil Kinnock, King Henry V and world champion snooker player Mark Williams have in common? They are all children of Gwent. In more than 100 mini-biographies of the county's sons and daughters, Irena Morgan explores the lives of some of Gwent's most famous offspring, and looks at others who are less well-known but have left a lasting legacy to Wales and beyond.
Irena Morgan has worked as a journalist on local newspapers for more than 30 years, first in house and now as a freelance. She writes a local history column for the Abergavenny Chronicle and is secretary of the town's history society. She lives in Abergavenny.
