This detailed account of the history of smuggling on the Exmoor coast is told through many stories of adventure and daring, collusion and corruption, and deceit. Focusing on the stretch of coastline from Watchet to Minehead, it describes smuggling runs at remote coves as well as the involvement of larger coastal communities such as Lynmouth, Minehead and Ilfracombe. Quotations from contemporary documents bring to life the covert activities of contraband runners and the overt efforts of those whose task it was to outlaw them
