Location Research

Invite Richard to entertain your group with stories of his native Cornwall and its mystique, history, adventurous people, and romantic landscape. Share the joy that inspired him to write The Miner & the Viscount as he discusses the travel and discovery involved in his research for the novel–and how he wove fact with fiction to create the saga’s unforgettable characters.

Contact Richard at cornishchronicle@gmail.com to arrange a lecture in person or delivered from his library to your location.
