Description
In 1845, the Rev. Richard Cobbold published a book telling the story of the well-known Suffolk heroine Margaret Catchpole. It was a best-seller and is still in print today. At the time, he painted 33 watercolours to accompany the story, but most of these were never used and the few that were only appeared in black & white.
Now, with the help of the Cobbold Family History Trust, local historian Pip Wright has made these pictures available for the first time in a retelling of the story. Fully illustrated in colour, with photographs and other pictures, this book runs to 130 pages of sheer delight.
