The New Founde Land

Meer over het boek

Comprehensive history in terms of time (from the last Ice Age to the mid twentieth century) Mowat combines historical research with a personal experience of living on "The Rock" to make a facinatingly delicious, sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant read. Although it is clear that Mowat admires the people of Newfoundland tremendously, he gives a balanced perspective of life there from both an insider's view and an outsider's view.
