The Rise and Fall of 18th Century Smugglers | Our History

Thanks to the Hollywood film industry, the image of the smuggler at the turn of the 18th century, bringing in tubs of brandy under the noses of the revenue men, will forever be associated with the hidden coves and beaches of the South West. In Time Travels Bryan McNerney looks behind the Hollywood myth and finds that the truth is even more dramatic. Through recounting the exploits of a determined Naval Officer who made it his mission to bring a gang of murderous smugglers to justice, and revealing the cunning methods and secret hiding places of one of the West Country's most celebrated smugglers, Bryan tells the true story of the rise and fall of the men who called themselves "free-traders.
