The History of Polperro: A Fishing Town on the South Coast of Cornwall is a book written by Jonathan Couch in 1871. The book provides a comprehensive account of the history of Polperro, a small fishing town located on the south coast of Cornwall. Couch, who was a physician and a naturalist, spent most of his life in Polperro and was deeply interested in the town's history and culture. In this book, he describes the town's early history, including its origins as a fishing village and its development into a thriving port in the 18th and 19th centuries. The book also provides detailed information about the town's economy, including the types of fish that were caught and the methods used by local fishermen. Couch also discusses the town's social and cultural life, including its customs, traditions, and festivals. The book is richly illustrated with maps, drawings, and photographs that provide a visual representation of the town's history. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Cornwall, fishing communities, or the social and cultural life of small towns.With A Short Account Of The Life And Labors Of The Author, And Many Additions Of The Popular Antiquities Of The District.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
