Description:
The peripatetic Morant took these dramatic photographs (color and b&w) of the Canadian Pacific Railway over the course of his career as the CPR photographer, from 1929 to 1981. They will make train-lovers' hearts thump, office workers daydream about their next vacation, and miscast modernists wax nostalgic about a world they never knew. The informed and sympathetic text is by Canadian Pacific locomotive engineer John F. Garden. 11.25x10.25". Published by Footprint Publishing, Box 1830, Revelstoke, British Columbia, V0E 2S0. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

Description:
On October 15, 1954, Hurricane Hazel battered southern Ontario, leaving in its wake a terrible toll: thousands homeless, million in property damage, and, worst of all, 81 people dead. Hazel destroyed bridges, submerged towns, and drowned unsuspecting Ontarians in their homes and cars. Raymore Drive in Weston was decimated when the Humber River swelled by eight feet, taking the lives of 32 residents in only one hour. In Etobicoke, five volunteer firemen drowned while trying to reach marooned motorists. Towns and villages from Toronto north to Timmins felt Hazel's fury.After the storm, people walked the now-surreal streets of their towns: cars upside-down and wrapped in power lines, iceboxes and dead cows hanging from trees, houses flattened, toys and furniture floating down the street.
On the 50th anniversary of the storm, Jim Gifford has captured that fatal night in the voices of those who survived it, from residents who lived along the surging Humber River to a policeman who rescued families from… Read More

> Title: The Promise of Canada Author: GRAY, Charlotte Publisher: Simon & Schuster Canada, 166 KING Str., Toronto, ON 2016 ISBN: 978-1-4767-8467-0 Condition: EXCELLENT From the acclaimed historian Charlotte Gray comes a richly rewarding book about what it means to be Canadian. Readers already know Gray as an award-winning biographer, a writer who has brilliantly captured significant individuals and dramatic moments in our history. Now, in The Promise of Canada, she weaves together masterful portraits of nine influential Canadians, creating a unique history of our country. What do these people—from George-Étienne Cartier and Emily Carr to Tommy Douglas, Margaret Atwood, and Elijah Harper—have in common? Each, according to Charlotte Gray, has left an indelible mark on Canada. Deliberately avoiding a top-down approach to history, Gray has chosen Canadians—some well-known, others less so—whose ideas, she argues, have become part of our collective conversation about who we are as a people. She…
