Terry D. Breverton (born 1946) is a British former businessman who has written many books on subjects mainly related to Wales and seamen.

Life

Terry Breverton was born in Birmingham in 1946. His parents were Welsh, and he was brought up in Wales. He worked for many years in international business and consultancy, and as a management consultant in the production industry, and a marketing director. Breverton has said that the skills he developed in research and writing as a management consultant transferred easily into writing history books.

In 2000 Breverton founded Glyndŵr Publishing to publish his own books and those by other authors who were unable to get their non-fiction work on Wales accepted by other publishers. He has said, "The Welsh are treated as second-class citizens, and live in a country that is one of the most economically backward in Europe. They are rapidly becoming a minority in their own country." Meic Stephens wrote of Breverton's 100 Great Welshmen and 100 Great Welsh Women in the Western Mail Magazine on 16 March 2002, "These are not necessarily books that you want to read from cover to cover, but to browse in ... Both are really extraordinary achievements by a single author whose industry and enterprise seem to show no bounds."
