I found a copy of this book in a second-hand shop and decided it was what I needed to help translate letters between Cornwall and my local region. It has been an invaluable resource. Using a multitude of dialect variations, and the uses of the words as well as some history, it is surprisingly interesting for anyone who is looking at Cornish history.
