		The Newfoundland songs come from MacDonald himself, along with a Ron Hynes tune, one from Peter Robinson and Lee Vaughn and two more from a mystery writer you can only discover by buying the disc.

		While considerable concentration of ownership of the forest resource in the interior of the Island of Newfoundland did occur, this was the result of a rational reallocation of timber licenses from economically nonviable to economically viable developments.
		This is a history of an interesting and bygone era, the Newfoundland and Labrador export trade in pitprops and pulpwood.
