Softcover / Paperback. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. Softcover. Each county holds within it a store of amazing mysteries and chilling murders - Cornwall is no exception. Included in this book is the story of the shocking death of the prominent architect Silvanus Trevail who took his own life on board a train in 1903; the mystery surrounding the double murder of two well known inhabitants of Skinner's Bottom in 1920; and the question surrounding the sightings of a large amphibious sea serpent off the coasts of Cornwall. Other tales recount the ghastly discovery of Charles Giffard and his wife Elizabeth, whose battered bodies were found at Carrickowl headland, Porthpean, in November 1952; the intriguing story behind the ghost of a young lady in WAAF uniform who has been seen in the gardens of Housel Bay Hotel; and the secrets behind the legend of King Arthur and his assocation with Tintagel Castle. Each story reminds us of Cornwall's majestic and timeless landscape, and as each account unfurls we can only marvel at how fact can be so much stranger than fiction. Illus. + Map and Bibliog. 125pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true-crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. with no creasing to covers. Seller Inventory # 14420
