Item description from seller

This Is A 1970's Translation of a 1930's French language work about Peace River homesteaders. described by E.K. Brown of the Winnipeg Free Press as "the finest novel of the Canadian West . . . a literary work in which the materials of the frontier have been wrought into designs of lasting beauty. ." The translator, who has signed on the title page, describes a great deal of care and consultation on his part in order to do justice to the work. This is a slightly yellowed and at this point unread copy with some edge wear. I say 'unread at this point" because, although this seems to be a pretty obscure piece of Canadiana, the reviewer's superlatives and translator's remarks are too tempting for me to resist.

Store description

I am a book lover and collector with a literary education (which means I have not read Ulysses, but I have taken classes on it). I am a packrat and aficionado of fine and serviceable used items in the belief that it is time to slow down production and slow down our lives in order to appreciate and share that which already exists.
