Description:
Toronto: McClelland & Stewart, 1990. 305 pp, large 8vo (9 1/4" H). Inscribed on title page: "Bonne Chance Laurier L. LaPierre, Nov/90". B&w illustrations and maps. "(This book) is no scholarly history. Rather, it is a re-creation of the battle and of the long siege that preceded it. Lapierre conjures up the rain, the deafening noise of bombs falling on Quebec, the petty squabbles that threatened the military strategies of both sides, and adds his own commentary on events. He is assisted in his interpretations by such historical figures as Bougainville for the French and Townshend for the English, whom he 'interviews' about their roles during those long, hot months of the siege." Minor wrinkling at top/bottom of spine, very minor soiling on front board. Dust jacket has light wrinkling at top edge of rear panel. . Inscribed By Author. First Edition.. Hard Cover. Very Good+/Very Good.

Description:
Ottawa: Marcel Broquet, 1988. 201 pp, 4to (12 1/2" H). B&w photographs, colour and b&w reproductions. "Already celebrated in Europe in 1906 as a great 'American' etcher, Clarence Gagnon then 25 years old, did not follow through his great success and wished thereafter to be recognized only as a painter. His work is represented in many different collections, public and private in Europe and Canada. The publication in France of 'Maria Chapdelaine' by Louis Hemon in 1933, wholly illustrated by Clarence Gagnon, is still talked about in many countries. The encounter of two geniuses as well as the perfect integration of the illustrations in the novel, made for the creation of a perfect book. The present study on Clarence Gagnon traces through a number of documents unrevealed up to now, an exceptional series of photos of and by Clarence Gagnon, and a unique career in the history of Canadian painting."

Montreal: McCord Museum of Canadian History, 1994. 127 pp, 9 3/4" H x 12 1/8" D. Bilingual text (French/English). Profusely illustrated with reproductions of Notman's photographs. "William Notman invited over a hundred people to come and don brightly coloured costumes representing various themes and epochs in order to create a composite photograph. They dressed as Scottish couples in Highland costume, Elizabethan ladies and courtiers, soldiers and sailors, a voyageur, an 'Indian' and a pilgrim father. The occasion was a skating carnival in the Victoria rink staged in honour of Prince Arthur, who was stationed in Montreal as an officer-in-training in 1870. The finished picture consisted of individual photographs of one hundred and fifty figures cut out and pasted on to a painted background. When we look at composite photographs today, it is sometimes with a certain amusement at what we may perceive as a naive idea, combined with a sense of wonder at the magnitude of… Read More
