TED HARRISON, Painting Paradise, is a biography in words and pictures. Ted Harrison rekindled the romantic notion of the Canadian north when the descendants of Robert Service approached him in 1984 to illustrate The Cremation of Sam McGee. Ted Harrison’s vivid brushstrokes capture life north of the 60th parallel in a style so unique it defies classification. This first-ever illustrated biography, drawn from unpublished letters, notes and documents, gives a complete and knowing portrait of one of Canada’s most esteemed national treasures.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Katherine Gibson M.Ed, is an accomplished author whose work has been translated into several languages. Gibson began her adventure with Ted Harrison in 2005, when they embarked on a four-year exploration of his long and colourful life.
