DescriptionPages in excellent condition with dust jacket discoloured and frayed but largely intact.

The glossary which forms the greater part of the book deals with a dialect and other words given by Cornish fishermen to fish, birds, equipment and other things encountered in their daily lives; full use if made of all available manuscript sources, but the greater part of the material was gathered by the author from old fishermen many years ago and would otherwise have been lost beyond recall. Includes bibliography of author’s writings.
