About this event
For writer and historian Joel Griffett, his research into legendary Cornish inventor Richard Trevithick’s life was still missing one piece of the puzzle: his eleven-year adventure across Latin America. Joel’s fascination took him on his own adventures as he followed in Trevithick’s footsteps – and that of other intrepid Cornishmen – in Peru and Costa Rica in search of lost documents and maps. Joel recorded his journey in Long Road to Nowhere: The Lost Years of Richard Trevithick (Part One) and will share some of Trevithick’s experiences as a diver, sailor, arms dealer and explorer of Central American jungles and rivers.
