Why read it?
1 author picked A Castaway in Cornwall as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Every chance I get to skip across the pond I take in a heartbeat, and one of my very favorite places to visit is the coast of Cornwall. You don’t have to spend a ton of money on airfare, though, to do the same. The descriptions in this book are positively scrumptious.

From Michelle's list on to satisfy Jane Austen and Jane Eyre lovers.
