1937[8], 9-222 pages. Occasional black and white illustrations. Undated but appears to be circa 1937.

Includes works by Robert Service, J.C. Murray, Alpine MacGregor, and many others, brief biographies for fourteen of whom are included at back. Somewhat above-average wear to publisher's illustrated brown buckram-covered boards. Front hinge starting. Narrow opening in binding at title page. Prior owner's details atop front free endpaper. No dust jacket, presumably as issued. A worthy vintage copy of this nostalgic Mother Lode of Canadian verse. Book
1983xi, 394 pages. Bibliography. Black and white photographic plates. "Joe Boyle led many lives - sailor, sports promoter, entrepreneur, diplomat, soldier, spy - each life a testament to a romantic nature, a love of action, a blunt, single-minded devotion to doing what seemeed right and what needed to be done. Decorated by four European countries for outstanding services in war, he long remained unsung and all but forgotten in his own land. Now, using new material from the Boyle family archives never before published, this book recreates in colourful detail the exciting life of one of the last international heroes." - dust jacket. Book
