THOMAS EVAN NICHOLAS (“Niclas y Glais”) was born in 1879 into an age in which imperialism was spreading across much of the world, led by British monopoly capital but with US and German capital increasingly demanding their place in the sun.

Nicholas began his life in Crymych, north Pembrokeshire, north-west of the south Wales coalfield which by then largely powered the British imperial navy.
