The Miner & the Viscount is set in the author's native Cornwall in the late eighteenth century, a time of social turbulence and historical significance, when Cornwall mirrored the history of Britain: the birth of the industrial and agricultural revolutions, the expansion of empire, the coming of the Enlightenment, the rise of Methodism. A royal duchy, Cornwall had 44 Members of Parliament (as many as all of Scotland); new-fangled steam engines worked in her tin and copper mines; her seamen explored the world's oceans and her politicians led the exploitation of America. Cornwall is one of those special places that emanates a spirit, a mystique, a beauty and a people that are compelling and fascinating. The peninsula at the southwestern tip of Britain, Cornwall's picturesque scenery varies from great country houses and market towns and fishing villages, to tin and copper mines, bleak moors, Neolithic monuments, rugged cliffs, the English Channel and the Atlantic Ocean. Strong characters, both historical and fictional, struggle with wealth and poverty, ambition and idealism, love and hatred, honor and revenge. They wrestle with the issues that faced them in this fascinating and vital period and offer us insights into what we face today.

Cornwall is a land like no other where a Celtic culture struggles to hold its own against the onslaught of the twenty-first century. The Pengilleys are very much part of that modern life and hardly stop to consider their own roots-until Grandad dies and leaves a chest of dusty papers and an old pot. The ensuing journey to uncover this strange past soon finds the family tied across more than two hundred years to Jacka, Mary, and their three children, living in a tiny village on the rugged coast of West Cornwall. The Pengilleys of the late eighteenth century battled poverty, dangerous mines, and the eradication of their whole way of life by a new language taking hold in their parish-English. Jacka sets about a plan to save his family and cultural heritage but faces challenges which break his heart and nearly cost him his own life. Can his descendants decode the puzzle he left in the Cornish language which, by the twenty-first century, lay beneath the surface-like a hidden city?

Examination of major changes in political behaviour in 19c Cornwall, withwider implications for the country as a whole. This detailed case-study offers a penetrating analysis of the changing political culture in Cornwall up to and after the introduction of the 1832 electoral system. It spans a century in which the county's parliamentary over-representation and notorious political corruption was replaced by a politicised electorate for whom issues and principles were usually paramount. Several models of electoral behaviour are tested; in particular, the continuous politicalactivism of Cornwall's farmers stands out. Despite remnants of the unreformed electoral system lingering into the mid-Victorian era, Cornwall developed a powerful Liberal tradition, built upon distinctive patterns of non-conformity; the Conservatives, split by dissension, saw their pre-reform ascendancy disappear. Professor EDWIN JAGGARD lectures in history at Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia.
