About this title

Book Description

The twentieth-century revival of interest in the Cornish language sprang from the efforts of activists like Henry Jenner (1848–1934), who published this Handbook in 1904, while employed at the British Museum. The book introduces the history of Cornish, its grammar, and topics including literature, names, dates and swearing.
