Book Condition: Near Fine; small coffee spot on text block fore edge. DJ: Near Fine; two closed tears on spine. Book is tight, square and unmarked. Black cloth boards with bright gold lettering on spine. 413 pp. The letters of Robertson Davies show us his remarkable career in all its variety. Happily married with three daughters, the editor of a nationally respected newspaper, the major book reviewer for Saturday Night magazine, the author of several well-received plays and a dozen books including three on the Stratford Festival, he felt his life a failure. Through these letters, the reader can see a promising young man of great ambition slowly turning into a great literary figure. A pristine and clean copy in a Brodart jacket.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Rankin, Peter (illustrator). New condition red boards with silver spine lettering contained in a new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Alistair MacLeod; About the Author; and About the Illustrator. Illustrated with black-and-white drawings and two-color illustrated front and rear endpapers. "The story is simple, seen through the eyes of an eleven-year-old boy. As an adult he remembers the way things were back home on the farm on the west coast of Cape Breton. The time was the 1940s, but the hens and the cows and the pigs and the sheep and the horse made it seem ancient. The family of six children excitedly waits for Christmas and two-year-old Kenneth, who liked Halloween a lot, asks, "Who are you going to dress up as at Christmas? I think I'll be a snowman." They wait especially for their oldest brother, Neil, working on "the Lake boats" in Ontario, who sends intriguing packages of "clothes" back for Christmas. Will he arrive in time? Will the narrator be thought old enough to stay up late on Christmas Eve, to join in the adult gift-wrapping role of helping Santa Claus? The story is simple, short and sweet, but with a foretaste of sorrow, as the biblical title reminds us. Not a word is out of place. Alistair MacLeod's writing is like a long poem that begs to be read aloud. Matching and enhancing the story are twenty-five glorious black-and-white illustrations by Peter Rankin. They make this book a thing of beauty in every way, one that deserves a place in every Canadian home that values a traditional Christmas." - from the inner front jacket flap.
