2014

O Dan Lygaid y Gestapo (University of Wales Press; 2014 ) explored the influence of Enlightenment thought within 20th century Welsh-language culture.

2015

His book Pam Na Fu Cymru (2015; English version: Why Wales Never Was) was shortlisted for Wales Book of the Year award in the non-fiction category.

Pam na fu Cymru (University of Wales Press; 2015) proposed that the historical failure of Welsh nationalism was due to its dependence on a form of British liberalism which promoted Anglophone majoritarianism.

2017

The English edition was published in 2017.

Jerry Hunter, Professor in the School of Welsh and Deputy Vice Chancellor at Bangor University, said of Why Wales Never Was, "This is a multi-layered study that tackles core questions about nationality, language and identity. It talks about the past with a view to the present and the future, in a challenging and exciting way."
