Separately, and if you are into Cornish history and books, then this is for you:
'Commotion Time' 'The Anglo-Cornish War of June - August 1549' by Craig Weatherhill
Craig was one of our team, loved by so many, and deeply missed, a Cornish Patriot, Bard, speaker of Cornish, historian, archaeologist, architect, and so very much more......
Craig passed away a year ago and his death has left a huge vacuum with Cornish people everywhere.
From his extensive writings and research, yet another book has been identified by this best selling Cornish author of 'The Promontory People' and other such classics and has now been published by the Penwith Press.
With a forward by Cornish woman Cheryl Straffon, herself author of several books, 'Commotion Time' records the day-by-day account of the Anglo-Cornish war which caused the deaths of thousands of Cornishmen and the subsequent decline of the Cornish language at the hands of the English State, Archbishop Thomas Cranmer, his agent William Body and others.
In 84 pages of impeccable research, Craig reveals that what has been dismissed as the “Prayer Book Rebellion”, the Anglo-Cornish war was not solely religious in nature and was not a mere skirmish, but a civil war.
Thoroughly researched by the great man himself, this is his last book and is his voice from beyond the grave reminding one and all that the event must never be written out of Cornish history, despite the best efforts of the Establishment to do so.
The Penwith Press from where the book may be purchased for £7.50: https://penwithpress.co.uk/product-category/books/
