1947,
POLLETT, Ron. The Ocean at My Door and other Newfoundland outport stories. Montreal : Guardian Associates Ltd., 1947. First Edition. Pp [1]-[32]. Illustrated. 8vo, wrappers. O'Dea 2670a, Laugher p.450. Not in Watters or Rhodenizer. Pollett, printer & author (1900-1955). See ENL IV:365, DNLB pp.273-274. The seed edition. The other stories are: "The Outport 'Millionaire'", "Let's Look at the Squid", "The Cat with the Yaller Face", "A Born Trouter", and "Where Christmas is Christmas". "While most of Pollett's writings are a nostalgic vision of outport life, he also captured his geographical and intellectual separation from Newfoundland in writings about his life in New York. Indeed, his importance as a writer may have been chiefly as a voice for thousands of Newfoundlanders forced to leave their home for economic reasons." - B.Wade Colbourne, in DNLB. Illustrations by H.N. Haken. Fine, bright copy. 60.00
