Mebyon Kernow & Cornish Nationalism - Bernard Deacon, Garry Tregidga, Dick Cole

Mebyon Kernow & Cornish Nationalism is the first book to fully address the issue of political nationalism in Cornwall. It traces the growth of a Cornish national consciousness through the twentieth century, to the foundation of Mebyon Kernow (the Party for Cornwall) in 1951 and its evolution from a cultural pressure group into a fully-fledged political party. Comprehensively researched using a range of primary sources and interviews with key figures within the party; Deacon, Cole and Tregidga’s ground-breaking study chronicles Mebyon Kernow’s role within Cornwall’s wider national movement and the increasing growth in support for Cornish self-government.
