--"Toronto Star"
"A surprising and fascinating history of how Newfoundland and Labrador became Canada's tenth province."
--"The Commentary"
"Fascinating and thought-provoking."
--"The Telegram"
""Don't Tell the Newfoundlanders" is a serious work of scholarship and Malone's grasp of the complicated history of a complicated period is masterful.... Malone...has a first-rate style which enables him to render complex historical detail accessible and vividly real to a wide swath of potential readers. I couldn't put the book down."
--"The Independent" (Newfoundland and Labrador)
"I grew up, like many Newfoundlanders, sensing that something had been very wrong about the whole process of Confederation but not knowing exactly what. So I'm very grateful to Greg Malone for doing the research that finally lays the whole sordid story bare. It may or may not change the way Newfoundlanders behave towards Canada, but it will certainly change the way we think about the relationship."
--Gwynne Dyer
