There is nothing ‘little’ about the history of Cornwall! However, this small volume condenses that fascinating, rich history into a collection of stories and facts that will make you marvel at the events the county has witnessed. Discover Henry VIII’s plan to protect the county from invasion from Catholic Europe, the important development of tin mining on the north coast and the rise of seaside resorts all around the county. Take a journey through Cornwall’s historic struggles and celebrations or jump in to the era of your choice to discover the who, what and why of Cornish history.
PAUL WREYFORD is a journalist who has worked in the industry for more than 25 years, as a reporter, sub-editor and editor on a variety of newspapers and magazines, both in Britain and abroad. He is the author of six local history books, four of which have been published by The History Press. Although his work has taken him all over the country, Paul considers the West Country to be home, and has recently moved back to Bude.
