Part exploration, part memoir, David Elias’s latest book answers the riddle of why barns are often red
Manitoba author David Elias has had plenty of barn time in his life. In his new book, The Truth About The Barn: A Voyage of Discovery and Contemplation, he tells how as a teen, he toiled one long summer with his grandfather, an older brother, and a hired man dismantling a turkey barn – a colossal structure, almost 300 feet long and wide as a football field – board by board, nail by nail.
