Arthur L. Salmon’s 'Cornwall' offers a comprehensive and evocative exploration of England’s westernmost county, capturing its unique spirit through a blend of topographical detail and historical narrative. This work serves as an essential guide to the rugged cliffs, mystical moors, and picturesque fishing villages that define the Cornish landscape. From the legendary heights of Tintagel to the architectural wonders of St. Michael’s Mount, the text provides a detailed survey of the region’s most significant landmarks.The volume delves into the deep-seated Celtic heritage of the area, examining prehistoric antiquities, ancient churches, and the historical evolution of Cornish society. Readers will find insightful observations on the local industries that shaped the county, including maritime trade and the storied tradition of tin mining. Arranged with both thematic overviews and a gazetteer of towns and parishes, 'Cornwall' is an invaluable resource for those interested in British local history, archaeology, and the enduring cultural identity of the West Country. Salmon’s prose skillfully balances factual precision with an appreciation for the atmospheric beauty and folklore of this distinct corner of Great Britain.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
