Cornish Tales: Ancient and Modern
()
About this ebook
Cornwall is cut off from the rest of England by the River Tamar which effectively makes the country an "island". Consequently, its geographical isolation meant that Cornish people developed their own language, food and customs - and regarded the rest of England as they would regard any other foreign country such as France, or Spain.
