Originally published in 1888, this early novel is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. Under the pseudonym Q, Sir Arthur Thomas Quiller-Couch pens a fascinating novel of immensely witty Cornish tales that is still an interesting read today.

We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Less
