Collected Poems - Limited Edition
Irving Layton With photos from the Connors' family archives, this full-colour scrapbook celebrates the life and times and songs of a Canadian music legend.
From his first performance at the Maple Leaf Hotel in Timmins, Ontario, in November 1964, Tom Connors was well on his way to becoming a Canadian icon. This illustrated scrapbook explores Stompin' Tom's songs, and the events that inspired them -- among them, "Fire in the Mine," "Sudbury Saturday Night," "The Hockey Song," "The Martin Hartwell Story," "Erika Nordby," and "How the Mountain Came Down." Also here are original song lyrics, family photographs, and stories from Tom's family and friends.
With 150 photographs drawn from the Connors' family archives, this new book is an intimate look at the life of a music legend whose music embodies what it means to be Canadian.
