Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The rugged coastline of Devon and Cornwall has long been associated with smuggling. The high cliffs, hidden coves and secretive villages made it difficult and dangerous for the land-based Revenue Services to patrol effectively. At sea, meanwhile, authorities had to contend with fast, heavily armed craft manned by expert and reckless traders. Many ships were sunk and lives lost in the struggle, but fortunes were at stake. A smugglers cargo could be worth anywhere from 2,000 to 10,000, at a time when a labouring mans earnings were no more than 20 a year. This book brings that colourful history to life, taking you back to a time when this black economy traded in luxuries including lace, silks, tea and spirits. At one stage, half of all the brandy being smuggled into England and Wales came in along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall. Its funny to think that todays quaint fishing villages and holiday beaches were once the backdrop for conspiracy, intimidation and murder. One such site is Prussia Cove, stronghold of the infamous Carter family, where eight six-pounder guns protected a cache of huge quantities of brandy, gin and rum. The men who organised the smuggling were well known and largely condoned by the local communities, who stood to gain from their activities. Lawful pursuits such as fishing provided cover and offered secure hiding places, like the fish cellars in Mevagissey and mine workings in St Just. Mary Waugh describes the smuggling industry in detail along each section of the coast, explaining the methods used and introducing the characters involved. For those wishing to follow the various smuggling tracks for themselves there are suggestions for places to visit after each chapter. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

paperback, 8vo, 176pp, illustrated, text clean and tight, no inscriptions, spine not creased, Very Good condition. ISBN: 0905392485.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Reprint. Paperback. The leaders in the field were the smugglers of Kent and Sussex, closest to both the Continental suppliers and the profitable London markets. Large bands such as the Mayfield, Groombridge and Hawkhurst Gangs controlled the business, often resorting to blackmail, exortion and murder. In the long struggle between the free traders and the various preventive services there was villainy and violence, as well as skill and courage on both sides. Who would suspect today the battles which raged on the seafront at Bexhill, along the main streets of Worthing or in sedate London suburbs? The author's book describes the industry in detail along each section of the coast, explaining the methods used and introducing the characters involved. For those wishing to follow the various smuggling tracks for themselves there are suggestions for places to visit after each chapter. Her book is a vivid portrait of a trade which even today is remembered with awe tinged with more than a little affection. Illustrated. 176 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).…
