150. Smuggling
February 10, 2022
Context:
Mentioned alongside Moonfleet as a key book that shaped the romanticized, Cornwall-based image of smuggling. Daphne du Maurier is described as being 'responsible in the large part' for the fictional image of smugglers. Preston notes that du Maurier drew on the story of the real Cornish smuggler John Carter, the King of Prussia, in writing Jamaica Inn.
