Seller's Description:
Used: Acceptable. Good condition with DJ. ref ZKVQ The title of this second book was chosen, in part, to reflect the sense of `looking back' to the days which many long for, recalling scenes in some cases of well over a century ago. But the title also refers to the inevitable sense of nostalgia felt when looking at so much that the passing years have taken away, particularly the essential Cornish character of so many of our towns and villages. These photographs remind us that not all that is in the past was good, nor that all change is for the best. Poverty, danger to life and limb from mining and at sea, and hard toil for the majority are variously illustrated in these pages. But who could, on looking through this book, not also feel a yearning for the uncomplicated daily life the images reveal, and a sense of gratitude in seeing what might have passed beyond our knowing, but for the presence of a camera.
