Three young men, a newly qualified barrister, a narrator and an overworked bookworm ordered to leave his books behind, set off for the Long Vacation into Cornwall. On their rambles they meet old men who believe in piskies, hear tales of saints, wreckers, smugglers and giants, and get into scrapes of their own.
A good-humoured blend of travel, folklore and comedy, illustrated originally by Leonard Raven-Hill. Download the free EPUB.
