CLAUDIA COUTU RADMORE began a written correspondence with Leonard Budgell in the early 1980s, which continued even when she was training teachers in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu for several years. Claudia recognized the educational and historical value of the wonderful stories Len related in his letters of his experiences living and working in Canada’s North. Arctic Twilight makes Len’s stories available to all.
