About This Book

This book relates the story of a small Newfoundland community, as told through its buildings. From the addition of a kitchen to the construction of a new house, the way people build and change their homes says a great deal about their histories and daily lives, and the author's insights on the stories told in the architecture of the Codroy Valley are sure to encourage readers to look at their own communities in a new way.
