An Evening With W.O. Mitchell

W. O. Mitchell

Synopsis:
The man who was the most memorable storyteller in Canada spins his favorite yarns -- including the time when at age 15 in Florida during a Fourth of July speech he forgot Mr. Lincoln's sacred words. Unruly white hair flying, fist raised, voice husky or thundering, W.O. Mitchell's performances of his work were unforgettable. Now you can hear "the familiar Prairie crackle" of W.O. Mitchells voice reading five of his favorite performance pieces in this 90-minute audio cassette. All pieces are taken from W.O. Mitchell's live performances before an audience (with much laughter), and all of them appear in the book An Evening With W.O. Mitchell, published in the fall of 1997. Each is introduced by Stuart McLean, the popular Canadian author and broadcaster. All of them catch the wonder of the unforgettable W.O. Mitchell reading to a delighted audience.
