Book Description
The Dictionary of Newfoundland and
Labrador Biography is an attempt to
provide some basic reference on
approximately 1,500 individuals who have
influenced the development of
Newfoundland and Labrador as colony,
country and province, since the European
re-discovery of North America in 1497.
Anyone who has done any writing-
whether historical or contemporary-
about Newfoundland and Labrador is well
aware of the void that exists in
Newfoundland and Labrador biography
and of the time -consuming task of finding
reliable information concerning basic
biographical details. The publication of the
'Dictionary' is a modest attempt to fill that
void. Paperback. 770 pages.
