News from Halifax

Elizabeth Bishop's photograph graced the front page of the Sunday, June 19, 2011 edition of the Halifax Chronicle Herald, which included a substantial illustrated article about Bishop's connection with Great Village by Lois Legge. The web edition of the newspaper reproduces the article, and also includes three video presentations. These may be found at the following URL:
