Smuggling Days and Smuggling Ways: Or The Story of a Lost Art is a historical book written by Henry Noel Shore, first published in 1892. The book provides a detailed account of the history of smuggling in England and the techniques used by smugglers to evade the authorities. It covers the period from the 18th century to the mid-19th century when smuggling was at its peak. The author delves into the social and economic factors that contributed to the rise of smuggling, including high taxes on imported goods and the demand for luxury items. The book also includes anecdotes and stories of famous smugglers and their daring exploits. Shore's writing style is engaging, and he paints vivid pictures of the coastal towns and villages where smuggling was rampant. Overall, Smuggling Days and Smuggling Ways is a fascinating read for anyone interested in English history, the customs and traditions of the past, and the art of smuggling.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
