In , Daphne wrote a book called Vanishing Cornwall. In it, she explored ‘the spirit and history of Cornwall’, picking out the local stories she found most interesting. She also wrote about her concerns for Cornwall’s future and the effect of tourism. Around the same time, she joined the Cornish political party Mebyon Kernow. As du Maurier explains in Vanishing Cornwall, most of the backbone of Cornwall consists of moorlands, from the source of the Tamar River in the north to the south-west, all the way to Penwith and the claw that is Land’s End. The greatest stretch of moorland, where Jamaica Inn lies, is a timeless place with abandoned mines and infinite open spaces, ‘a country of stones, black heather, and stunted broom.’Estimated Reading Time: 8 mins. In the mid's she and her son set out on a journey through Cornwall, the setting of her home and her work. Their mission was to capture Cornwall before the advance of time erased its sites, beauty and culture. "Vanishing Cornwall" preserves much of what was important to du Maurier through her words and her son's photographs/5(39).
