Summary
Driving dog teams through the icy heart of a northern winter, bracing against the flimsy bulkhead of a frail ship battered by storms, removing an appendix on a heaving vessel while bluebottle flies buzz overhead - hard training for a… future Lieutenant-Governor of Newfoundland and Labrador. Tony Paddon here recounts his life, from his Labrador childhood to his time in the RCN during World War II, to his service as a Grenfell doctor operating out of St. Anthony, Newfoundland and North West River, Labrador. 1989.
