“Book Descriptions: In this special edition of Mowat's collected writings about Newfoundland, he shares his passion for the Rock and for its history. Beginning with the Viking explorers, then settlers and proceeding through the days of the cod fishery, the seal hunt and the great ships' captains, The New Founde Land takes us all the way up to the present day. Not only is the history well covered, most parts of the island are described in the course of the book, and the humour of its inhabitants is given free rein.”
