Secret Llandudno offers a unique insight into the ‘Queen of the Welsh Resorts’ through a series of little-known and forgotten stories, facts and anecdotes. Local author and historian John Lawson-Reay takes the reader on a fascinating journey from prehistoric times to the present day, blending dark deeds and strange tales from Llandudno’s long and often unlikely past, as well as introducing us to some interesting characters along the way, from the Queen of Romania to a former Australian prime minister and from Buffalo Bill to Alice in Wonderland. Fully illustrated in colour throughout, the book delves beneath the surface of this ever-popular North Wales seaside resort, revealing a lesser-known history that most local people don’t know.
