The Welsh Valleys, 1865. Impoverished smallholder Dafydd Rhys and his family emigrate with friends to Patagonia, at the tip of South America, where they are promised a life free from the pits and punishment for speaking their own language. But can Dafydd find the strength to lead his people to overcome the tragedies and disasters they will face? Ticket to Paradise is historical fiction at its best - based on the true story of the mass emigration from Wales to Patagonia 150 years ago. It includes a wealth of characters brought vividly to life who populate this tale of battles against injustice, bitter rivalries and the terrible forces of nature. At its core is the story of one family’s quest to carve out a better life for themselves and their descendants.
