From the bifacial hand tools of the Lower Palaeolithic to the Hellenistic Great Altar of Pergamon, the artifacts presented here reveal a complex sociocultural history of shifting priorities, spiritual beliefs, and cultural traditions; the influence on material culture of isolation and internationalism, of technological advance and decline, and of prosperity and adversity.

The Cornish Coast is justly famous for its grand cliffs, lovely harbours and sandy bays. It is beautiful but dangerous, and hundreds of ships have been wrecked here over the years. In this book we travel from Calstock on the quiet River Tamar to Plymouth Sound, and around the south and north coasts to end at Morwenstow, where Hawker wrote the Cornish anthem - 'Trelawney'.

The subjects include cliffs, harbours, beaches, coves, ships, churches, rivers, pubs and houses, with people at work and play, to create a vivid visual impression of a period at once familiar and remote.
