Ted,

Bought the book through Amazon.ca, and Chris and I plan on being there in NY 
on 24 April.  Should be a great occasion.

Cheers,
gene

"TED GRANT: 60 Years of Legendary Photojournalism!"

Mark my man!

Actually I will be quoted on 24 APRIL 2014 at the LEICA GALLERY in New York 
when the same book is launched to the USA book buyers and the opening of an 
exhibition of 75 photos from the book and my wild and crazy 60 year life 
career!

YEP! The old lad is receiving international recognition in the LEICA Gallery 
with a showing of 4 months into August 2014 of 75 photographs out of the 
book!

A what we might call a "LIFE TIME EXHIBITION!" Showing many interesting 
images gleaned from the book and the Canadian National Archives collection 
of 300,000 photos, negatives and colour slides! The largest collection by a 
single photographer in the history of Canada!" :-)

Hope to see a bunch of you folks in the "BIG APPLE!"  come April 24-25, 2014
Cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
