In Devon the thread of history is everywhere evident - on its wild, grand moors and in its charming villages, in the ubiquitous craftsmanship in wood, clay and wool on which its prosperity has so often rested - and Shirley Toulson traces it faithfully in this most comprehensive and engaging of guidebooks. We follow her through the pastoral delights of the South Hams, across Exmoor and Dartmoor, to the harbour-towns, where each quayside is drenched in Devon's maritime history, compellingly recounted for us in this most companionable of guides to this most hospitable of counties.

Poets of Devon and Cornwall, from Barclay to Coleridge
Shearsman Books
2007
pokkari
Alexander Barclay, Richard Carew, Humfrey Gifford, Anne Dowriche, Sir Walter Ralegh, Sir Arthur Gorges, Joseph Hall, John Ford, Robert Herrick, Sidney Godolphin, William Strode, William Browne, Mary, Lady Chudleigh, John Gay, Samuel Taylor Coleridge. All of these are poets born in the two westernmost counties of England, or - like Hall and Herrick - poets who were active there. In time we stretch from the very beginning of the 16th century until the early 19th century. We begin with Barclay, a priest at Ottery St. Mary, and we close with Coleridge, the son of a priest at Ottery St. Mary, his birthplace. We have names that echo down through the ages (Ralegh), great writers central to the development of English poetry (Herrick, Coleridge), we have divines (Hall, Herrick), we have cavaliers (Godolphin), we have balladeers (Gay), we have under-recognised talents (Gorges, Strode, Browne, Chudleigh), we have virtuoso translators (Barclay, Carew) and we have two women poets (Dowriche, Chudleigh), one of whom influenced Marlowe and another whose work was admired by Dryden.This anthology presents an unusual collection of some fine poets from the south-west corner of England and inaugurates a new Classics series from Shearsman Books.
The coast is famous for its safe harbours aroundwhich, from ancient times, little communitiesestablished themselves. It is towards this shorethat most of Devons rivers run, creating deeptidal valleys. These days some of the most desirableand expensive homes in Britain are to befound here. And where fishing boats once tied upalongside granite harbour walls, yachts now lay upat pontoons or rock gently at vast marinas.The South Devon coastline provides the meansfor thousands to enjoy leisure pursuits. The SouthWest Coast Path follows the cliff edge for most ofits route through South Devon, while sandybeaches are thronged
