William Kurelek The Polish Canadians
Montreal, Canada Tundra Books 1981 0887761313 / 9780887761317 Hardcover Fine Good
0887761313 56 pages. The fifth and last series William Kurelek was able to complete on the peoples who built Canada, and Kurelek - as he tells us in his text - felt particularly close to the Polish Canadian experience because so much of it paralleled his own Ukrainian-Canadian background. Out of his manifold appreciation, he produced a series of 26 paintings that touch the heart, last in the memory and evoke new awareness for the contribution made by Polish Canadians to their adopted country. Book unmarked with very light wear. Dust jacket price clipped with closed tears to each end of spine, additional tiny tears, average wear and several faint stains.
