Abstract

The majority of Outrams books and pamphlets were published either by the Gauntlet Press-the private imprint established by Outram and his wife Barbara Howard-or in trade editions by a variety of small Canadian presses, including Tortoise Press, Aliquando Press, AnsonCartwright Editions, Exile Editions, The Porcupines Quill, Food for Thought Books, and The St. Thomas Poetry Series.1 Poor reception was to dog Outrams poetry for most of his career. [...]the project spearheaded by Memorial University Humanities librarian Martin Howley to digitize Gauntlet Press works has brought Outram and Howard's work to a worldwide audience.
