The Barbara Hepworth Sculpture Garden
English artist Barbara Hepworth (1903-1975) created a unique combination of subtropical garden and sculpture park at Trewyn in St.Ives -- a haven of peace that acted as a showplace for her sculpture, a working environment, and an opportunity for Hepworth to pursue her other great love, gardening. This book is a beautiful record of the plants and sculptures at Trewyn throughout the seasons; it explores the evolution of the garden, its purpose, the placement of the works, and the relationship between Hepworth's abstract sculptures and the natural forms that surround them. With specially commissioned photographs taken in all seasons, two essays on Hepworth's work at Trewyn, and full descriptions of both plants and sculptures, this is a wonderful addition to the literature on St.Ives and on Barbara Hepworth.

A History of the Parishes of St. Ives, Lelant, Towednack and Zennor
Excerpt from A History of the Parishes of St. Ives, Lelant, Towednack and Zennor: In the County of Cornwall Whatever be the imperfections of this book, it has at least the distinction of being the first printed history of the parishes which form what we have called the Saint Ives District, save a few brief notices contained in works treating of the entire county of Corn wall. It is true that in the last century Mr. John Hicks, of Saint Ives, wrote a history of his native town, and that many extracts from his work have been handed down to us in the volumes of the county topographers; but Hicks' manuscript, valuable as no doubt it was, was never published, and has long been lost. The author th...
