Of days bone by is designed to give the reader a brief history of the Bonavista Peninsula, particularly the period from the 1500's up to the 1990's. It outlines some of the trials and tribulations encountered by the fisherman. It tells of the men who carried on through the hard, sad and happy times. It is a tribute to the warmth, humor and vitality of a people whose lives have formed a rich and vital chapter in the history of Newfoundland. It is not a complete story, to tell that, I am sure would fill many books.
