Petty Harbour, Newfoundland, 1970 Photograph by Sam Abell At harvest
time, a farmer starts his day on a Petty Harbour farm. Located on the
east coast of Newfoundland, far from the Canadian mainland, Petty
Harbour sits on the Grand Banks, an undersea shelf that is the favored
home of a great number of fish and the secret, millennium-old
destination of European fisherman.

Geographic magazine)    RELATED
