Review :
Un o wyrthiau byd cyhoeddi Cymraeg yw parhad Y Cymro fel papur cenedlaethol Cymru gan nad ydym yn enwog fel cenedl am warchod ein trysorau, ac maer hyn a ddywedodd Sarnicol am agwedd y Cymry at lyfrau yn wir hefyd yng nghyd-destun y byd cyhoeddi Cymraeg yn gyffredinol: Os am foddior Cymry golau Traethwch iddynt am gyfrolau, Os dewiswch eu dychrynu Soniwch wrthynt am eu prynu. Clod felly i ddyfalbarhad y cyhoeddiad hwn, ac addas yw cynhyrchu cyfrol i ddathlu tri chwarter canrif ei gyhoeddi rheolaidd. Maen gyfrol o tua 90 o luniau, 70 o bytiau, a thraethiad gan y detholwr (Robin Jones) yn cyfleu hanes y cyhoeddi, nid o 1932, ond or dechrau un yn 1848 hyd 1932, ac yna ymlaen hyd heddiw. Yn anorfod, ni all detholwr blesio pawb, ac fe fydd yna anghytuno r dewis. Syndod i mi oedd absenoldeb unrhyw gofnod o rai or prif ddigwyddiadau megis trasiedi Aberfan, methiant refferendwm datganoli yn 1979 ar canlyniad agos yn 1997. Ac fe fyddwn i wedi hoffi gweld rhes o ferched deniadol (cystadleuaeth Pwy ywr Berta?) yn hytrach na llun gwael o gm bl-droed (Ble maer Bl?) i enghreifftior cystadlaethau oedd mor bwysig ir papur ar un cyfnod. Ond pawb i ffansi ydi hi yn hynny o beth! Agwedd arall y gellir ei beirniadu ywr diystyru llwyr, bron, o ganolfannau poblog Cymru megis Caerdydd, Casnewydd, Abertawe, sydd efallai yn tanlinellu problem papur syn galw ei hun yn bapur cenedlaethol Cymru, ac yn bapur Cymraeg. Pa mor genedlaethol yw cenedlaethol? Y mae map demograffig Cymru yn newid, a bydd yn rhaid i unrhyw gyhoeddiad Cymraeg rheolaidd sydd am oroesi adlewyrchu hyn. Ond y mae ir gyfrol ei rhinweddau megis traethiad tyn diwastraff yr awdur wrth gofnodi hanes datblygiad y papur ar sylw a roddwyd i gewri byd y wasg fun ei gynnal -- Rowland Thomas, John Eilian a John Roberts Williams, i enwi dim ond tri. Ei rhinwedd pennaf ywr pwyslais yn y dethol ar gofnodi ac enghreifftior cyffredin. Nid pard syrffedus o enwogion a selebs y byd Cymraeg sydd ynddi; yn wir, ar wahn i ambell lun ac ambell gyfeiriad, does fawr o neb pwysig yn cael sylw. Marciau llawn gan hynny i ddetholwr syn ddigon hirben i sylweddoli mai cyfoeth y genedl yw ei gwerin, ac mai mynd a dod y werin honno sydd o wir bwys. A diolch am dipyn o hiwmor hefyd fel y paragraff am dafarn laeth Bangor a Juke Box i ddenur ifanc, ac ynar llun o ddau hen begor yn eistedd yn ei ymyl ar diflastod yn amlwg ar eu hwynebau. Mae safon y lluniau ar y cyfan yn ardderchog ac enwau megis Geoff Charles yn warant o ddyfeisgarwch ac artistri tu l ir camera. Gobeithio y bydd y gyfrol hon yn foddion i ddenu darllenwyr newydd ir papur o blith y miloedd Cymry Cymraeg nad ydynt, mwya cwilydd iddyn nhw, yn ei brynu, fel y bydd yna, ymhen pum mlynedd ar hugain eto, gyfrol arall yn dathlu canrif o gyhoeddi di-dor.
