Cornish Seafarers - The Smuggling, Wrecking and Fishing Life of Cornwall

About this book

This fascinating book contains a detailed account of the seafaring lifestyle intrinsic to Cornish culture, covering a wide range of topics from smuggling and wrecking to fishing and general boating. A delightful book sure to appeal to anyone with a keen interest in Cornish culture, Cornish Seafarers is a must-have addition to collections of antiquarian nautical literature and well deserves a place atop any bookshelf. Alfred Kenneth Hamilton Jenkin (29 October 1900 - 20 August 1980) was best known as a historian, who had a keen interest in Cornish mining and published the classic text The Cornish Miner (1927). This rare text has been elected for modern republication due to its historical value, and is proudly republished here with a new introduction to the subject.
