The Cornish Coast South And The Isles Of Scilly Classic Reprint

"The Cornish Coast (South), and the Isles of Scilly" is a book by Charles G. Harper, an English author, and illustrator. An excerpt from the first chapter reads thus "The southern portion of the Cornish Coast may be said to begin at the head of the navigation of the river Tamar, at Weir Head, to which the excursion steamers from Plymouth can come at favorable tides, or a little lower, at Morwellham Quay, where the depth of water permits of more frequent approach. But barges can penetrate somewhat higher than even Weir Head, proceeding through the canal locks at Netstakes, almost as far as that ancient work, New Bridge, which carries the high road from Dartmoor and Tavistock out of Devon into Cornwall."
