Labrador - Photographs by Bob MesherLabrador is one of the last mysterious and virtually inaccessible territories of the North-or so have the European and American explorers claimed over the centuries, as Danielle Schaub writes in the introduction. In this book, the first album of photographs published by an Inuit from Nunavik, Bob Mesher offers an "insider's" vision of the fascinating land where he was born, following the journey that his family had begun from Northern Quebec to Paradise River. Having returned to Kuujjuaq, as a university graduate and the publisher of Makivik Magazine, Bob Mesher is committed to documenting Northern Quebec and Labrador through thousands of photographs. The reader will discover his exceptional perspective, through the choices of photographer Danielle Schaub and through the often surprising captions given by Bob Mesher.
