In the summer of 1850 the young Wilkie Collins and his friend, the artist Henry Brandling, walked through Cornwall, then still beyond the reach of the railway. Collins describes fishing towns, holy wells and Druid relics, Cornish people and their speech, mines and the Land’s End, with an eye for character and a dry humour.
