Description

Using a wealth of previously unpublished postcards and photographs, Peter Treloar takes the reader on a fascinating journey around the Cornish coast of yesteryear.

Whilst the scenery, which is well covered, has remained the same, the people, forms of transport, town centres and fashions have changed.

This unique collection depicts many of those dramatic changes that have taken place during the past century.

From Morwenstown in the north to Torpoint in the south, this Cornish tour traces the history of the coastal towns it encompasses, the evolution of the fishing and shipping industries and that of the railways which put these beautiful towns on the tourist route.

This book will appeal to maritime enthusiasts and all those who wish to know more about the history of the coastal settlements.

It is sure to evoke nostalgic memories for those who remember Cornwall over many years, whilst giving insight into the past for those visiting the area.
