About the Book
(L’Enclume et le couteau)
ADELARD COTÉ, fermier, forgeron et artiste populaire sculpta des
centaines de pièces avant sa mort en 1974. Né le 6 juin 1889 à
Ste-Sophie, Québec, il s’établit dans la région de Biddeford-Saco
(Maine) au début des années 20. Il épousa Éva Hébert qui fut pour lui
non seulement compagne de vie mais inspiration d’artiste.
