    Summary: 
    "A collection of true Christmas stories by Gary Collins, Newfoundland and Labrador's favourite storyteller, who invites us to live again the gone forever. These stories embody the soul of Christmas in outport Newfoundland, and each one carries a message that rings true every time: all roads lead to home. Christmas, with all its lights and music and gift giving, is also a time to remember days long ago. Community togetherness and the strength of family come alive in these pages, where Gary Collins, in his inimitable style, reminds us of the poverty of possession and the wealth of sharing. Stories include The Christmas Rescue, Mummer in the Barrel, The Christmas Salmon, Flowers for a Queen, Concerts and Times, and many more. Gary Collins was born in a small, two-storey house by the sea in the town of Hare Bay, Bonavista North. He finished school at Brown Memorial High in the same town. He spent forty years in the logging and sawmilling business with his father, Theophilus, and son Clint"--Provided by publisher.
