Saunders Lewis, 'The Banned Wireless Talk on Welsh Nationalism' (Caernarvon, 1930) [front cover, image 1 of 8]
This 'radio talk' was prepared by Saunders Lewis, at the request of the BBC, to be broadcast on 6 December 1930. However, on 4 December 1930, the author was informed that his talk had not been approved by BBC officials and must not be given as it 'was calculated to inflame Welsh national sympathies'. The 'talk' was subsequently published by Plaid Genedlaethol Cymru (the Welsh Nationalist Party) in 1931.
