One of Cornwall's most controversial authors will launch his latest
book this evening as a follow up to his previous two hard hitting
volumes, 'Breaking the Chains' and 'Our Future is History'.

The previous two books by Cornish rights campaigner and historian,
John Angarrack, have both had a huge influence on the political outlook
and attitude of many ordinary Cornish people, with some stating that
it was not until they had read the arguments presented by Angarrack
in his books that they 'woke up' to their Cornish identity and the
suppression of their rights as a people. 'Breaking the Chains' and
'Our Future is History' both concern themselves with the on going
issues of constitutional deception, cultural assimilation and the
neo-colonialism of the English system.

Copies of Angarrack's books have been confiscated by the Devon and
Cornwall police under different circumstances, including all the copies
owned by Cornish campaigners who were arrested in police raids last
year. His latest book, 'Scat t'Larrups?: Resist and Survive', looks
at what happened during the period of the arrests and attempts to
set events in their proper context.

Angarrack told the Celtic League:

"[The book] might also provoke another round of police raids."

The launch will take place at Chacewater Village Hall on Tuesday 20th
May 2008 7pm. The evening will be opened by Dr Higel Hicks, Cornish
Stannary Parliament member and former Vice President of the Federal
Union of European Nationalities (FUEN).

The book is available from: http://johnangarrack.co.uk/ (if you dare to buy it - safe outside of UK but within it - who knows ?)
