Three groups of stories from his pen will be found in this book that were all published many years ago. The first group come from his collection "Nebes Whethlow Ber" (1948); the second group of stories are to be found in his "Whethlow an Seyth Den Fur a Rom" (1948), and the third series appeared with the title 'Forth an Broder Odryk' in "Kemysk Kernewek: A Cornish Miscellany" (1964). The book also contains a vocabulary in which more than 1,400 words and names are glossed. |
