The Admiral’s Daughter
$200.00 – $580.00
Cover art for Julian Stockwin’s ‘Kydd’ series book. Anti-smuggling patrol on the Cornish coast, 1803. Julian Stockwin was asked about the cover of The Admiral’s Daughter in a recent interview: “As usual, Geoff Hunt RSMA did a superb original painting on which the cover is based. It is almost Impressionistic in nature, and depicts a Royal Navy landing party going ashore on anti-smuggling patrol. The amount of smuggling in those days was incredible. In 1783, it was estimated that of a quarter of all tea smuggled into England and half of the illicit brandy entered by way of Cornwall and Devon.”
