Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Growing up in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, along the eastern shore of the Halifax Harbour, Frank Leaman was surrounded by sailors, adventurers and hardscrabble men trying to eke out a living on ships, on wharves and in the woods. He helped his grandfather build wooden boats and his father sell salvaged post-war goods, lumber and anything else he could to support his family. Life changed for the Leamans in the late 1950s when Frank's father bought a rustic lodge on Nova Scotia's scenic South Shore. Developed by Philip Hooper Moore, the man who decades earlier had opened White Point as a hunting and fishing lodge, the Leamans embarked on an adventure in the tourism business with the Buccaneer Lodge. Leaman recounts some of those adventures; whether it was taking travellers out on their cruiser, the Buccaneer Lady, in search of trophy-sized salmon and bluefin tuna, cruising to Tancook Island or Oak Island, in search of buried treasure, or helping to re-fit SS Arctic Bear, a dual steam-powered and sailing ship that eventually sank east of Cape Sable Island. In this collection of stories, Frank tells tales of the ships, people and events that happened around him as he juggled the running of seven businesses with his father.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Growing up can be both thrilling and treacherous in small-town Newfoundland, where a young person will experience the joys and struggles of life in ways that are unique to isolated, rural communities. Bruce Stagg grew up in the 1950s and 1960s in Catalina, a rural fishing community on Newfoundland and Labrador's Bonavista Peninsula -- a time and place that inspired this collection of short stories. Stagg effortlessly captures the spirit of post-Confederation Newfoundland. Life was arduous, but also romantic; families were optimistic, but struggled to put food on the table. These are stories of a childhood spent on the wharf, by the seaside, and in detention. Of larger-than-life personalities in a small but vibrant town. Of deep grudges and lifelong friendships. With rich detail and remarkable characters, this is a delightful and insightful step back in time.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In January 2012, 14-year old Burton Winters froze to death after his snowmobile broke down on the ice just outside his home in Makkovik, Labrador. While his death was tragic on its own, grief turned to outrage as details emerged about his struggle for survival and how the search for Winters was handled by government agencies. Revelations include the fact that he had walked for 19 kilometres over rocky ice before lying down to die, and that rescue crews waited three days before finally searching for the boy. In this book, Michael Johansen tells the story of Burton Winters life, explores how he died, and why there is a rising chorus demanding changes to Canada's search and rescue procedures.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Robin McGrath acts as a navigator, guiding locals and visitors alike around parts of Labrador -- particularly the interior -- that are too often overlooked. In doing so, she offers candid glimpses of human and natural history, of local colour and characters, and of the culture of the three founding peoples of modern Labrador. Although a native of Newfoundland, she had spent much of her working life in what was then the Northwest Territories, now Nunavut. McGrath moved to Labrador in 2006, eager to learn, explore, and write in the Big Land. Over the next decade, she opened her ears and eyes to the people and places around her and wrote dozens of captivating articles and essays about her experiences. Labrador is very, very different from Newfoundland, and very different from the more northern parts of Canada also. Its geography is varied, its languages are complex, its history is unique. In her time there she met some of the nicest, bravest, most interesting people she has ever known. Innu activist Elizabeth Penashue and her husband Francis brought her into a part of Labrador that most people never see - into the country, to the sweatlodges and remote beaches and into the homes and tents of their friends and relatives. They brought her to religious services, baby showers and funerals, berry picking and on fishing trips. This book is a collection of over 50 of these pieces.

The original Tartuffe, by France's most celebrated comic playwright, is set in seventeenth-century Parisian high society during the reign of King Louis XIV. Jones' Tartuffe, set in the home of a wealthy fish merchant on the South Coast of Newfoundland, is a blazingly funny exploration of religious hypocrisy, with a unique Newfoundland twist.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The fishery defines the culture and heritage of Newfoundland and Labrador. But historically, it was merchants who wielded power and reaped the bounty created by workers. This changed in 1971 when a group of dedicated people created what was then known simply as the Fishermens Union. Their goalwhich was derided as idealistic and doomed to failure -- was to change the power structure of the fishing industry to ensure workers could finally obtain their rightful share of the wealth. But the naysayers were wrong, and the union has survived market crashes, industry restructuring, divisive corporate campaigns, scandalous levels of foreign overfishing, and devastating fish stock collapses. Earle McCurdy, who spent most of his career with the FFAW-Uniform, has been at the center for many of the unions important battles. Drawing on personal experience, as well as dozens of interviews and extensive research, McCurdy tells the compelling true story of challenge and triumph.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. There was a time -- not so long ago -- when the rich and influential quivered with trepidation as they opened the pages of the Evening Telegram. For within that newspaper lurked Ray Guy, whose sharp satire revealed bitter truths about those who wielded power in Newfoundland and Labrador. Guy, heralded as the real opposition to Premier Joey Smallwood, wrote with passion about the subject dearest to his heart -- Newfoundland and Labrador. For decades, he wrote fearlessly and defiantly in a range of local and national media. But Guy was also a deeply trouble man, who struggled against alcoholism and depression. Ron Crocker was a roommate and colleague of Guy in his Evening Telegram Days. Drawing on years of friendship, as well as an in-depth reading of Guys works and candid interviews with many of those closest to him, Crocker delivers a detailed portrait of the writer and his work. RAY GUY: PORTRAIT OF A REBEL is a testament and a toast to Ray Guys brilliant writing. It is also a compelling biography of a complex man with an incredible gift.
