The illustrated Ode to Labrador

"The Illustrated Ode to Labrador is a new treatment of Dr. Harry Paddon's beloved anthem. Artist Geoff Butler has produced twenty-five vibrant original paintings that feature the various people and regions of The Big Land, executed in oil paint. Robin McGrath outlines the history of the ode and the life of Dr. Paddon, and in a series of thumbnail vignettes, she puts Butler's paintings into a cultural and geographic context that amounts to a mini-tour of the Eastern Ungava."--
