"In a succinct and readable essay, Roger Boulet follows the trails [The Group of Seven] blazed on their sketching trips. Theirs was a quest for the rediscovery of their own country. Their work gave it new meaning. The images they created gave the country new beauty and its people a new awareness of their northern identity. Most of the paintings selected for this volume have been held in both private collections and major public galleries. The majority, however, have never been reproduced before. Those that have been made available to the public have rarely been reproduced in colour, and never with the fidelity apparent in every plate of [this book]." - dust jacket.
