North of Little Hill (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789080780859)

The book presents a record, in the form of an extended and descriptive glossary, of the everyday conversational dialect used by the pupils at the Port Isaac County Primary School in the North Cornwall of the late 1940s. It additionally pays tribute to the traditions of the enduring village community of the day and the characters who made it what it was, illustrating their peerless vein of wit, humour and expression with examples of conversation, anecdotes and rhymes.
