Produktbeschreibung
A quiet, enduring doorway into a world of salt air, early twentieth century Nova Scotia, and a boy's growing sense of place. Bert Lloyd's Boyhood invites readers to step into small-town life where schoolrooms, family, and working hands shape every day. This memoir, told with clarity and warmth, blends canadian memoir sensibility with maritime historical fiction. It follows a boy navigating family duties, community rhythms, and the steady pull of the sea, offering a layered look at childhood in Nova Scotia and the everyday heroism of traditional maritime work. It's a tale that speaks to both casual readers and lovers of classic canadian literature, bridging juvenile regional literature with a broader, resonant cultural heritage. Historically and literarily significant, the work provides a window into maritime Nova Scotia's social fabric, enriching our sense of place in Canadian memory. Its careful, human storytelling preserves a doorway to a vanished world while remaining accessible to modern audiences. The book's appeal lies in its clear, authentic voice and the universal themes of belonging, effort, and family. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, Bert Lloyd's Boyhood has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collector's item and a cultural treasure-an essential addition to any shelf devoted to maritime heritage stories, classroom reading material, and family reading choice.
