About this text
Caradoc Evans (David Evans) († 1945): public-domain work. The text is that of la transcription établie par Erostrate sur le fac-similé d'Internet Archive (My People: Stories of the Peasantry of West Wales, by Caradoc Evans, New York, Boni and Liveright, 1918). Erostrate has not changed a single word: only the layout and the division into pages are ours.
Note on the edition (in French): Texte de l'édition de New York (1918), identique à l'édition originale de Londres (Andrew Melrose, 1915) ; quinze nouvelles. Texte établi en collationnant deux lectures du scan, divergences relues sur l'image.
