Lumberjack

Walter H. Lorraine, Boston, Massachusetts, 1974

Description

William Kurelek has drawn on his own memories and experiences as a lumberback to describe a way of life that has virtually disappeared. The publisher comments, “We strove for the best possible reproduction and binding we could get while keeping the price down so that a wide audience could enjoy this painter’s work.”
