Présentation de l'éditeur
Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a historical and descriptive account of the seaside village of Beer, Devon, recounting its transformation from a little-known hamlet to a popular seaside destination. Originally named Brerewood, it was once a port of some significance but declined in the 16th century as the coastline silted up. It lay virtually forgotten until the 1800s when its perceived health benefits drew visitors seeking relief from respiratory ailments. The author chronicles the history of the town, detailing the lives and industries of its inhabitants and exploring its architectural heritage. Despite its growth in popularity, Beer has retained its charm. The author describes its beauty, its picturesque white cliffs, its charming streets, and its friendly atmosphere, all of which continue to captivate visitors. The book also discusses Beerâs role in the region's smuggling trade, and includes a fascinating account of a visit to the smugglers' haunt in Beer Quarry, a cavern once used to store contraband. The author explores Beer's place within the literary landscape, noting the presence of a literary set in the village for a time. Among these notable authors was the poet, John Prince, and the hymn-writer, Augustus Toplady. Finally, the author reflects on the transience of life and the inevitability of change, musing that even the most enduring landmarks will one day fade into history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330853542_0
