Summary
: 
Newfoundland and Labrador is home to a diversity of cultures and ethnicities, but little attention has been given to how non-European identities have contributed to our province. Beginning with their arrival in the late 19th century, Lebanese immigrants established a successful business community here. This book delves into how these Lebanese-Newfoundlanders built businesses and established a unique sense of place while retaining cultural ties to their ancestral homeland.
