In Classic Spy Tales
and Epic Sea Adventures, Newfoundland‘s most beloved historian, Jack
Fitzgerald, returns with another thrilling collection of Newfoundland Stories.
Scouring the historical records, Fitzgerald revels what transpired when the two
most powerful leaders in the world met in Placentia Bay to alter the course of
war, how a secret spy document changed Newfoundland wartime policy, and how a
German U-boat managed to establish a Nazi weather station in Labrador.
And supplementing stories of war and espionage, Fitzgerald
also offers tales of giant squid, harrowing nautical disasters, and of the
Newfoundland sea captain who inspired one of the most famous novels ever
written.
As the third volume in Jack Fitzgerald’s Treasury of
Newfoundland Stories, Classic Spy Tales
and Epic Sea Adventures is an indispensable edition for anyone interested
in the history of Newfoundland.
