Synopsis
The fascinating story of an extraordinary yet ordinary man. An illiterate labourer, almost totally blinded in his thirties, Edward Prynn provides a record of Cornish village life from the late 1930s to the 1950s through a series of lively tales about his childhood and early manhood: tales of sneaking off school to beachcomb, of his first love and his misery when she emigrates to Australia, and of visits to Padstow to see the fishing fleet and eat macaroni on board. Edward Prynn’s charming collection of reminiscences never cease to amuse and delight.Latest Additions

Herring on the Nile - L. C. Tyler
In an effort to rejuvenate his flagging career, novelist Ethelred Tressider embarks on a "research trip" to Egypt. No sooner has the cruise on the Nile begun, however, than events quickly unravel: an attempt is made on Ethelred's life; the boat's engine explodes, and a passenger is found murdered. As the boat drifts out of control, suspicion falls on everyone aboard - including Ethelred.
