5.0 out of 5 stars Memories of St. Austell, 3 Sep 2010
This review is from: A Cornish Childhood: Autobiography of a Cornishman (Paperback)
This is a highly readable recollection of the author's childhood and youth in Tregonissey by St. Austell from 1903 to about 1940. It is well structured and intelligently written, recounting the delights as well as the limitations of life in a Cornish village but also the sobering and sometimes tragic effects of two World Wars on the local population. In the latter part of the book the writer describes his own intellectual development and his acquaintance with various well-known figures of the time. Most fascinating - I didn't want the book to end!
