Title: Antiquarian Notes on the Prehistory of Cornwall
Description: This is the first volume in a series dedicated to reproducing some of the long-forgotten articles from historical journals relating to Cornwall’s illustrious and ancient past. The articles themselves are taken from a variety of publications, both local and national, and from a wide span of time. To have these valuable sources in a set of compact volumes makes not only for an interesting read, but also a useful tool for reference.
