"Photographer Ursula Heller travelled through North America for nine years, stopping off in small towns - sometimes for several months - to document photographically a way of life that is fast disappearing. This study of eight small Canadian communities, portrayed in her unique style, truly captures the diversity of people and lifestyles across the country... Captures a special sense of place and lets us find out what it's really like to live there." - from dust jacket.
