Description: During Napoleonic times there was great concern that the French could invade England through Cornwall's undefended coasts, rivers and harbours. Due to this apprehension many areas assembled volunteer artillery companies to guard and protect their immediate environment. One of these was the East and West Looe Volunteer Artillery which existed between 1803 and 1809. In all that time, the company which numbered up to 70 members, did not lose a single member and became known as the Looe Die-Hards. This volume contains Q's comic tale about the Mayor of Troy who learns that he is not quite as essential as he believed. N.P. Cooper grew up on the Lizard peninsula and is the author of Loveday, High Church and Methodism, The Overlooked Literary History of the Lizard and The Clifton College Class of 1881.
