Edward McCourt is one of the most prolific and yet unrecognized of Canadian writers. Brought up on an Alberta homestead and a professor of English Literature at the University of Saskatchewan from 1944 until his death in 1972,
he recorded over a period of thirty years his particular vision of the prairies, the region of Canada which had irrevocably shaped his own life.

Detailed maps illustrated on endpapers. Original bookstore's book place inside. Beautiful book looks un-read.

Nice clean and solid copy in fabulous condition. Original decorated dust jacket by J. Ferguson. Dust Jacket in extra fine condition with maybe a hint of edgewear.
Book again looks un-read, tight and spotless. No written inscriptions. Would be a wonderful gift idea for your favorite person or addition to your own library.

Please see and enlarge photos and feel free to email with any questions. Thanks for stopping.
