About this Item:
Herber McGurk is a superb storyteller. The Many happenings during his thirteen years working at Carbonear, Battle Harbour and Frenchman's Island are still very clear in his memory. So are the many adventures and hardships encountered on well-known schooners, sealing vessels and coastal boats that plied the waters of Newfoundland and Labrador? The memories recorded here are indeed " Memories of a Former Era" Heber has contributed numerous original photographs, never published before, that also help to capture this era. To Heber I say," Well done, my friend. We are deeply indebted to you." Written by Cyril Chaulk
