I remember not that I ordered a book by Bourque ("I've just ordered a new book due out in June, 2006 titled: Red Paint People - A Lost American Culture, by Bruce Bourque.") and the order was cancelled. I think I'll try again.
Letter From Newfoundland: Homing In On The Red Paint People
As far as I can tell, the book was never written. I wonder if they advanced $$$ to Bourque?
