Blackstrap Hawco

Said to Be About a Newfoundland Family
Jul 01, 2013uncommonreader rated this title 2 out of 5 stars
Again set in the outport of Bareneed, this "epic" of Newfoundland life extends over a century. However, at 829 pages, it is far too long and as such, self-indulgent. If the intention was to show the humanity of the working class, others have done it better. Not without merit, but I could only read half of it.
