MacDONALD, Jake. The Bridge Out of Town. [Ottawa]: (Oberon, 1986). Pp (4),5-176,(2). 8vo, ill. card covers. "Jake MacDonald is a tough and racy writerwhose territory is the point at which ordinary people encounter those who live outside the framework of established society: trappers, guides, Indians, addicts and the unemployed. These people have to deal with the establishment every day of their lives, but to a social worker or a policeman they are merely problems that demand a solution. In these stories, they are seen as they really are, as human beings with a grace and wit of their own, who live, whether by choice or necessity, as strangers to the rest of us. Jake MacDonald is a writer with grit in his typewriter and a song on his lips." - rear cover, Very slightly crease to rear cover, else vg. 12.50
