Endangered Tiger
A Community Under Threat
by Neil. M.C. Sinclair
Paperback £9.99 |
Book Description
Endangered Tiger Neil Sinclair declares that the
old Tiger Bay community is not yet dead. In defiance
of all points of view to the contrary, he believes
that despite it having withstood upheaval, dispersal,
demolition and almost recently drowning in a multi-million
tidal wave produced by the Cardiff Bay Development
Corporation regeneration Scheme, there is still
a growl or two left in the old Tiger. He has n doubt
that in spite of being caged below the bridge, denigrated
and marginalised, the remnant residents of this
historically unique multicultural quarter of Wales’
capital are far from being relegated to a thing
of the past. Endangered Tiger leaves no doubt that
although the Tiger’s continuing future is in
jeopardy, like its counterpart in the wild, it may
yet survive extinction.
About the Author

of history walks. The Open University has recorded
his history walk and regularly airs this program

on the life and times of the community of Tiger
Bay he is often seen in the media discussing his
favourite subject. |
