174 pages including black and white photographic plates. In Spence Bay, in the far north of Canada, Judy Hill, a young nurse from Kingsbridge, Devon, decided to devote her life to caring for a community of Eskimos. In reading her story we learn of a hard cruel world where even 'survival' was still a luxury and of the courage necessary for the nurses to look after these still relatively primitive people in very isolated places. Here tragic death in a plane crash in 1972 drew attention to the vitally needed improvements in communications and facilities for these dedicated nurses. The facts of her death, and the controversy that surrounded Hartwell's action when he decided to use her body for nourishment, drew the world's attention to the risks these nurses took everyday in the wastes of the Arctic. Light wear to book which is clean and unmarked but for prior owner's name atop front endpaper. Dust jacket shows average wear, is price-clipped and missing one inch chunk at bottom edge of back panel. Solid copy. Book
126 pages. This little book takes its title from a daily feature which appeared in the Montreal Gazette. The artist depicts a fair cross-section of the life of any big city. His characters are nameless, ordinary people going about the exhausting business of living. The daily aggravations of crowded street cars, jostling pedestrians, rude motorists, sardine housing, and assorted tribulations only affect Moore's funny bone. Author is a Toronto native who moved to Montreal at an early age. Book is well-used with above average wear and soiling but remains intact... and enjoyable. Illustration upon front cover shows three fellows leering at a passing beauty. Book
