For those wishing to know: this was a rather late biography of George 
Borrow, published 1918, and a lot of the material is recycled from earlier 
biographies, typically Knapp.  However, Walling was a Cornishman and he 
researched the Cornish connections of George Borrow which results in a few 
chapters of largely new material.  Walling also makes literary judgements 
on Borrow.

All the best,
