Island Sketchbook

the long version

"Prince Edward Island storyteller Frank Ledwell weaves personal memoir with communal folk wisdom. Whether fact or fiction, the stories evoke the true, remembered landscape of Ledwell's childhood at St. Peter's Bay on the North Shore of Prince Edward Island; his experience as a student, teacher, and professor at St. Dunstan's University; and his later life as a professor, husband, and parent in rural Queen's County. The sketches in Island Sketchbook portray for us all the author's love of people and place, and mark his point of view as that of an inveterate Islander."--BOOK JACKET.
