'From Splott to Eternity'
Fr John's Autobiography
Publication date 19th May 2026
Published by Watermead Publishing Ltd
In mid November of 2023, just before his final admission into hospital, Fr John edited the typed pages of the finished layout ready for publishing. This file (and several backups) travelled safely with Watermead through its various moves to our re-location and now the work on design, artwork, further edits and proof-reading is complete and the book was published on 19th May 2026, which would have been Fr John's 91st birthday.
As his introduction explains Splott is a suburb of Cardiff and was his home for eighteen years before joining the Institute of Charity and becoming a Rosminian.
Eternity is where he now resides, although at the time of writing and editing his book he was still here with us and through its pages shares his glimpses of eternity on earth.
Books are now available to order on both our shop websites
