The Essential Elizabeth Brewster

ISBN: 9780889848788

Despite an impressive post-secondary education and a body of work that spans more than twenty books and seven decades, Elizabeth Brewster's quiet humility in the face of `all that tradition' of the Western literary canon belies her contribution to Canada's cultural history.
