Poldark's Cornwall

Poldark's Cornwall

<p>A lavishly illustrated companion to Winston Graham's beloved <i>Poldark </i>novels, reissued to coincide with the BBC series based on the novels. </p><p>Graham's saga of Cornish life in the eighteenth century has enthralled readers throughout the world for seventy years and the wild landscapes that inspired the novels have - even today - remained relatively unchanged. Cornwall then was a perilous world of pirates and shipwrecks: of rugged coast and mysterious smugglers' coves, of windswept moors and picturesque villages such as Boscastle and Port Quin, and of beaches, tin mines and churches. </p><p>With an introduction by Winston Graham's son, Andrew, and illustrated with stunning photographs, <i>Poldark's Cornwall </i>is a glorious evocation of the land of beauty, excitement, romance and imagination that Graham loved so well.</p>
