The Ferryland Visitor; A Mysterious Tale
In the early 1970s, artist Gerald Squires moved, with his wife and two young daughters, into the abandoned lighthouse keeper's house in Ferryland, Newfoundland. Shortly after their arrival, they had a visitor who claimed to be the former constable in the area and regaled them with stories of the place and its previous occupants. A visitor, they soon learned, who was more than he appeared to be.
"A hauntingly beautiful and exquisite book" - Canadian Children's Book News
"The book stands as both a particularly fine retelling of one of my favorite Newfoundland stories, and a beautiful tribute to one of the province's most celebrated visual artists. It is a treat to be savoured when the light is fading, over a good cup of tea." - Dale Jarvis, folklorist, author and storyteller.
"A warm and true book that revolves around family and belonging, beautifully told and illustrated with a crazy mystery thrown in! Highly recommended." - Michael Winter, author of Minister Without Portfolio and The Big Why
