Erin, Ontario: The Porcupine's Quill, 1980. Soft cover. Near Fine. Rampen, Leo. 8vo. SIGNED with inscription by author to half-title. Soft cover. 102 p.p. B&W illustrations. Some darkening to top edge of text block. This is a satisfying, fast-moving story, full of incident and detail about colonial life.
