Mitchell, W.O. Illustrated by Wesley W. Bates. THE BLACK BONSPIEL OF WILLIE MacCRIMMON.
McClelland & Stewart, Toronto, 1993, 2nd printing.
135 pp, small 8vo (7 3/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0771060815 Tartan endpapers, b&w drawings. "The time is the not-too-distant past, and the place is Shelby, Alberta, a small town in the foothills. Willie, a widower, is the town's sho e-maker, but like a good Scot he lives to curl; curling in fact is 'his only active religion'. He and his rink are so expert that he attracts the attention of the Devil himself, who comes to Shelby and makes him an offer hard to resist. The Devi l (a keen curler - and how they keep good ice in hell is fully explained) promises Willie that he'll win the Brier - if on his death Willie will undertake to come and curl in hell for him in the Celestial Brier. Willie makes the Faustian deal - bu t w ith the proviso that he will save his soul if he and his Shelby rink can beat the Devil's rink in a challenge match. And so Willie and his friends - with the help of the Reverend Pringle - take on the Devil's crew of Judas, Macbeth and Guy Fawk es i n the most crucial curling match of all time, a matter of after-life and death...." Blank bookplate and small company label on free front endpaper, minor wrinkling at top/bottom of spine, minor rubbing.
