This richly illustrated study profiles one of the most colourful and distinctive forms of regional furniture in North America and demonstrates the skills of Newfoundlanders and Labradoreans as natural innovators, clever designers, practiced recyclers, and masters of adaptation.

In 1766 Gaspé became an outpost of the Jersey metropole; in 1886 the Channel island of Jersey abandoned the region, reducing Gaspé, on Quebec's Atlantic coast, to Canadian outport status. From Outpost to Outport provides a structural and theoretical examination of the economic relationship between Jersey and Gaspé, explaining the development of codfish as a staple which, under merchant capital, secured success for Jersey at the expense of underdevelopment in Gaspé.

A holistic description of Newfoundland outport music and its social significance based on interviews conducted in Green’s Harbour and the Trinity Bay South area.
