For the first time we now have a comprehensive, throroughly researched and well written biography of one of our foremost landscape artists from the eighteenth century, Thomas Jones, Pencerrig. With composite skill and imaginative insight, Richard Veasey has brought together in this fine study the various disparate strands of Jones's interesting life and diverse achievements.
- John Graham Jones, Gwales
Thomas Jones was also a fine writer and Veasey makes the very valid point that at times the written word could be a more effective medium to describe a scene than a brush or pencil on canvas or paper. One complemented the other. A delightfully informative book.

Until I read Richard Veasey's biography, Thomas Jones Pencerrig - Artist, Traveller, Country Squire, I had no idea just how important a figure he is in the history of Welsh art. Veasey provides us with some fasincating insights into Jones' character and the life which shaped it. Throughout his life Jones kept a book of accounts and wrote a trail of memoirs, as well as uncompleted works of fiction. These rich details come to life in Veasey's biography.
