Arctic Ambitions C aptain Cook and the Northwest Passage Edited by James K. Barnett and David L. Nicandri Preface by Robin Inglis

Captain James Cook is justly famous for his explorations of the southern Pacific Ocean, but the exploration of the northern Pacific and the Arctic are equally signifi- cant. On his third and final great voyage, Cook surveyed the northwest American coast, hoping to find the legendary Northwest Passage. While dreams of a passage proved illusory, Cook’s journey produced some of the finest charts, collections, and History/Maritime anthropological observations of his career.

THE LAW AND THE LAWLESS F rontier Justice on the Canadian Prairies, 1896–1935 Edited by Art Downs

At the end of the nineteenth century, Canada’s Prairies were still sparsely populated. Crimes such as horse theft, random murders, and prison escapes were the order of the day, and the North West Mounted Police continued to rely on their horses, their contacts, and their wits to apprehend the culprits. By the mid-1930s, a sea change in technology and police science had changed the game. Major advances in transportation, communications, and sleuthing techniques made crime-solving a new art—but the criminals also had access to the new ways. The US had Bonnie and Clyde, and John Dillinger, but Canada had its fair share of bad apples committing equally vicious crimes: a serial rapist and strangler who most often chose female proprietors of rooming houses as his victims; a father-and-

THE LucK OF THE KARLUK S hipwrecked in the Arctic L.D. Cross

When the members of Canada’s First Arctic Expedition set out from Victoria aboard hmcs Karluk in the summer of 1913, it was a moment of great optimism. The three- year mission would chart unexplored land masses of the western Arctic and secure Canada’s place in the international geographic community. Little did the team of distinguished scholars and scientists realize, however, how their hopes would soon be brought to ruin. Just a few months into the journey, the vessel became lodged in heavy ice, eventually sinking near the coast of Siberia. With little polar experience among them but ample supplies salvaged from the wreck, the group of castaways slowly made their way to solid ground on desolate Wrangel Island. There they would wait while the ship’s captain and an Inuk guide embarked on a heroic 1,100-kilometre trek along the Siberian coast in search of help. By the end of the fifteen-month saga, eleven members of the original expedition would perish from frostbite and sickness, while the remaining twenty would survive to tell The Luck of the Karluk the tale. is a fascinating story about an important episode in History/Maritime Exploration Canada’s history and a revealing study of the strengths and weaknesses of human nature Heritage House • April 2015 under treacherous conditions. 5.5 x 8.5, 144 pages, b&w photos, maps 978-1-77203-020-4 • paperback • $9.95 978-1-77203-021-1 • epub • $7.99 978-1-77203-022-8 • epdf • $7.99 L.D.

“A fun, engaging series for adventure and history buffs.”—Quill & Quire

In their last adventure, Cody, Eric, and Rachel were clever enough to fool townspeople with a homemade “ancient Egyptian” tablet.

AR PU POSE RIDDEN Ryan Correy

In the summer of 1996, a father and his 13-year-old son embarked on a 3400 km bicycle tour across Canada. Affectionately known as “Manhood Training,” this unique bond- ing experience became the inspiration for Ryan Correy to break away from convention and turn a passion for cycling into his purpose in life. A Purpose Ridden is an honest and often obsessive first-hand account of becom- ing one of Canada’s most respected adventure cyclists. Ryan shares in great detail the sponsorship woes, the evolution of his ego, an admiration for flawed role model Lance Armstrong, the many accolades earned, family tragedy and, of course, the evolving relationship with his father, their fights, and friendships lost along the way. The path less travelled begins with a paternal taunt: “We’re close enough to home. If you want, we can call your mother to come and pick you up now.”

A Youth WASTED CLIMBING David Chaundy-Smart

David Chaundy-Smart took it as a compliment when his high school vice-principal told him he was wasting his youth by climbing. Here, he tells the story of how he and his brother, Reg, spent the last years of the 1970s fighting suburban boredom to become, in the words of renowned climbing historian Chic Scott, “one of the leading figures in Ontario rock climbing throughout the 1980s.” With its vivid accounts of short and nasty climbs, dubious mentors, hapless climbing partners, teenage crushes, bad cars, underage drinking and questionable climbing techniques, this is a memoir of coming of age in a simpler era of climb- ing, told with compassion, humour and insight.

David Chaundy-Smart is the founding editor of four magazines, including Gripped, Canada’s climbing magazine. He is also the author of five climbing guidebooks and numerous articles in the Canadian Alpine Journal and Climbing magazine. He started climbing in 1975 and has made numerous ascents in Europe as well as North America.

THE REAL THING T he Natural History of Ian McTaggart Cowan Briony Penn

During his academic career, Ian McTaggart Cowan stepped outside the narrow con- fines of academia to pioneer nature television. His television programs in the 1950s and ’60s, Fur and Feathers, The Web of Life and The Living Sea, made him a house- hold name around the world by capturing the first microscopic organisms on TV and bringing a live moose into the studio. He was also responsible for hiring a young David Suzuki, who followed in his nature-show-host footsteps. The Real Thing is the first official biography of Ian McTaggart Cowan (1910–2010), the “father of Canadian ecology.” Authorized by his family and with the research sup- port and participation of the University of Victoria Libraries, Briony Penn provides an unprecedented and accessible window into the story of this remarkable natural- ist. From his formative years roaming the mountains around Vancouver looking for venison to his last years finishing the voluminous and authoritative Birds of British Columbia, Cowan’s life provides a unique perspective on a century of environmental change—with a critical message for the future.

S AVinG FARMLAND T he Fight for Real Food Nathalie Chambers, with Robin Alys Roberts and Sophie Wooding

When Nathalie Chambers and her husband, Dave, first took over Madrona Farm, a local plot of land with a deep history, they never thought the business of small-scale agriculture would become an international political act. In time, however, they found that the mere act of planting, cultivating, harvesting and selling locally produced food was considered by many to be revolutionary and by some to be an act of rebellion that needed to be bound up in red tape. Saving Farmland introduces readers to stories of lost farmland; of bees saving lives; of sustainability, ecosystems and activism; lessons for overcoming obstacles, choos- ing models, identifying vital farmland, building community, and fundraising; and successful examples of regained farmland, international land trusts and heroes for ongoing inspiration.

TOD INLET A Healing Place Gwen Curry

Tod Inlet has been a place of refuge for hundreds, if not thousands, of years, but few are aware of its history. This tiny fjord, less than a half hour from downtown Victoria, is part of Gowlland/Tod Provincial Park and is accessed by a forested path beside Tod Creek. For centuries it was the home of the WSÁNEĆ (Saanich) people, providing everything for their spiritual and material sustenance. In the early part of the twentieth century a small company town grew on its shores. Houses, a railway, a clay mill, a factory and a dock for steamships were built for the Vancouver Portland Cement Company. When the cement company had exhausted the limestone quarries, Jennie Butchart began her ambitious cultiva- tion project, Butchart Gardens. Developers made plans for marinas, golf courses Nature/Regional RMB | Rocky Mountain Books • May 2015 and hotels to be built on this quiet inlet, but local citizens, environmentalists, 8 x 8, 240 pages, colour photos throughout scientists and Native people fought back. 978-1-77160-076-7 • paperback • $25.00 978-1-77160-077-4 • epub • $12.99 Almost all the buildings have been demolished, but concrete and iron are not 978-1-77160-078-1 • epdf • $12.99 easily disposed of, and reminders of the past confront the walker everywhere: Author’s home: Brentwood Bay, BC, Canada shell middens spill into the sea, fruit trees and garden flowers mingle with in- RIGHTS: World, all languages BISAC: digenous plants, and century-old industrial relics litter the creek, the forest and NAT049000: NATURE/Regional the Inlet.

DO YOU THINK THIS IS STRANGE? Aaron Cully Drake

Seventeen-year-old Freddy is having a rough year. First, he is expelled from school for fighting. Now, at his new school, he is required to have regular conversations with a school counsellor—an awkward situation for anyone, really, but even more so for Freddy, who has autism. But then Saskia—a fair-haired girl who is non-verbal—appears at his new school, and his memories start to unravel. When they were children, Freddy and Saskia attended the same group therapy sessions, and he hasn’t seen her in ten years. Now, not only does his unconventional relationship with Saskia provide him a place of respite in a difficult world, it sets a chain of meetings and events in motion that reveal a long- hidden family secret, and bring Freddy to a renewed understanding of his life and a freeing moment of truth.

THIS GODFORSAKEN PLACE Cinda Gault

The year is 1885 and Abigail Peacock is resisting what seems to be an inevitable future— a sensible career as a teacher and marriage to the local storeowner. But then she buys a rifle, and everything changes. During target practice one day, she encounters Shep January, a dying outlaw. In return for her help, he teaches her how to really shoot. When she kills the Pinkerton who is tracking January, Abigail must make a drastic move. She sets out on the road to Bill Cody’s Wild West Show in New York City, where she not only befriends Annie Oakley but also falls in love with Shea Wyatt. When Shea is wrongfully accused of the Pinkerton’s murder and put in prison, Abigail and Annie Oakley commandeer the help of Metis Rebellion leader Gabriel Dumont, and stage a dramatic jailbreak. This is the absorbing tale of one tenacious woman’s journey set against the back- drop of the Canadian Wilderness and American Wild West, told by four narrators— including Annie Oakley and Gabriel Dumont.

THE CorPSE WITH THE SAPPHIRE EYES A Cait Morgan Mystery (#5) Cathy Ace

The fifth instalment in the Cait Morgan mystery series, a classic whodunit series featuring an eccentric and funny female sleuth who is both a criminologist and an avid foodie.

It’s Cait and Bud’s wedding weekend and for the first time she feels like a bride—or at least, she’s supposed to. But then the rain won’t quit, the supposedly romantic Welsh castle they’ve chosen as their venue feels creepy, and there’s a dead body on the stairs. What first appears to have been the untimely, unfortunate, and accidental death of their wedding choirmaster quickly reveals itself to be murder. And when a series of mysterious events occur around the castle, Cait, Bud, and Cait’s sister, Siân, tackle the case.

THE CAREFREE GARDEN L etting Nature Play Her Part Bill Terry

A lighthearted and clever reflection on how best to work with Mother Nature to create a carefree garden.

What happens when a lifelong gardener finally realizes he must collaborate with Mother Nature, rather than work against her, to achieve his dream of creating the perfect garden? In this delightful and thoughtful narrative journey of horticultural discovery, Bill Terry asks how and even why we garden, and to what end. These are personal stories, thoughts, and ideas about the “perfect” garden inter- spersed with humorous imagined conversations with Mother Nature herself. As he works in his West Coast garden, choosing wild roses over fancy hybrid teas, and discard- ing man-made cultivars in favour of the charm and simplicity of peonies, hellebores, and tulips, Terry learns to welcome and encourage happy accidents, greatly reducing the work and effort required to maintain order (as most gardeners seek to do), and instead embracing a substantial measure of disorder.

ON THE EDGE T he State and Fate of the World’s Tropical Rainforests Claude Martin Foreword by Thomas E. Lovejoy

Approximately half the world’s tropical rainforests—essential for biodiversity, clean air and water, and climate stability—remain intact. Will our actions over the next decades conserve or destroy what’s left?

In the 1970s, the global community was rocked by reports documenting the defores- tation of tropical rainforests, and conservation became the rallying cry of the day. On the Edge examines what has happened, both good and bad, in the decades since. Tropical rainforests are not just massive repositories of biodiversity: everyone on the planet relies on this essential ecosystem for fresh water, clean air, and climate regula- tion. And yet, urbanization and the worldwide demand for food and biofuels still drive deforestation, and climate change threatens to start a feedback cycle that could make Nature/Science the rainforest a carbon source. With contributions from environmental luminaries Greystone Books • May 2015 6 x 9, 300 pages, colour photo section, graphs worldwide, On the Edge, the most important book on tropical rainforests in 50 years, throughout takes a close look at deforestation and reforestation throughout the world and finds 978-1-77164-140-1 • hardcover • $36.95 978-1-77164-141-8 • epub/epdf • $32.95 hope in success stories that guide us toward conservation.

F ALlen A Trauma, a Marriage, and the Transformative Power of Music Kara Stanley

In the vein of Joan Didion’s The Year of Magical Thinking, Kara Stanley tells the compel- ling story of her husband’s life-changing brain and spinal cord injury, and the role of music, science, and love in recovery.

Kara Stanley combines the heart-wrenching narrative of a catastrophic brain and spinal cord injury her husband suffered after a fall with the latest research on the brain. She also describes the transformative role of music both before and during his continuing rehabilitation and his battle to return to work as a professional musician. At the heart of the story is the relationship between Stanley and her husband, as she explores what allows a marriage to grow and thrive amid pain, chaos, and uncertainty.

BAREFOOT AT THE LAKE A Boyhood Summer in Cottage Country Bruce Fogle

An idyllic summer at the cottage in the 1950s, as revealed through the eyes of a boy on the cusp of adolescence: a first crush, the joy of nature, and the struggle to understand grown-ups.

To ten-year-old Bruce, the summer of 1954 seemed, at first, like any other in cottage country: floating in the rowboat, eating peach pie, exploring with Angus the dog, watching the seagulls, frogs and herons, and catching crayfish. But just when he thinks life is perfect, everything starts to change, and over the summer both the harshness of the adult world and the patterns of the natural world reveal themselves. By the time the weather turns he will be a different child and will have chosen his own path to understanding the wilderness that waits behind the family cottage.

Born and raised in Ontario, Bruce Fogle is a respected veterinarian and a best-selling author, whose books about animals have sold millions of copies worldwide. His journalism has appeared in publications as diverse as the Daily Telegraph and Country Life.

AL F AG FOR CANADA 50th Anniversary Celebration Rick Archbold

In 1964, almost a hundred years after its birth as a country, Canada still didn’t have its own flag. Yet Prime Minister Lester Pearson’s recent election pledge to at last give Canadians their own distinct, official banner seemed like a promise to commit political suicide. Six months later, after one of the bitterest debates in parliamentary history, the House of Commons voted to adopt a design chosen by a parliamentary committee. A Flag for Canada is a stunning visual biography that traces the flag’s central maple leaf symbol from its colonial origins to its gradual acceptance as the unofficial but unmistakable emblem of Canada.

SEA P RATion ANXIETY A Coming-of-Middle-Age Story Miji Campbell

A sharply observed and wryly funny memoir that chronicles a woman’s search for independence and self-actualization in the face of an anxiety disorder. Miji Campbell grew up in a close-knit family in the 1960s and ’70s, in a middle- class Calgary suburb called Kingsland. Her life proceeds in an orderly fashion until she moves away from home and then suddenly, inexplicably, it begins to unravel. Night after night, Miji wrestles with insomnia and increasing anxiousness. She yearns for her mother’s presence and feels overcome by homesickness. It’s not until middle age that Miji learns she has an anxiety disorder and finds ways to quiet her mind and body. Through acts of courage and grace, she learns to stand—tentatively, hopefully—on her own.

Miji Campbell is a writer and teacher whose work has appeared in print media, radio and an anthology. A two-time National Magazine Award nominee, Miji offers writing workshops through her business, Write Where You Are. Born and raised in Calgary, Miji lives in Red Deer, Non-fiction/Memoir Alberta.

A Short HISTORY OF CRAZY BONE a long poem Patrick Friesen

“Crazy Bone’s solitary life on the margins is at once a performance of the archetypal feminine forever at odds with patriarchal order and a libretto for the wayward, solitary, and vulnerable spirit of art, passion, and expression.” ­ —Sharon Thesen, author of Oyama Pink Shale

The voice of Crazy Bone takes you on a mesmerizing journey in Patrick Friesen’s evocative new long poem. Crazy Bone lives on the edge of the world, at the edge of time, wandering the mid-path of her life, on the outskirts of a small town. She is caught in her own monologue, listening to herself, to the river. Crazy Bone is a trick- ster, a fool, a wild woman laughing, a campesino, who through loss is finding her way back to herself. Society has dismissed her presence as irrelevant, but Crazy is cleverly confident, and tests the reader. In her rambling, she references writers, singers, artists, theologians, tightrope walkers, philosophers, not as experts but as guides along the

BR AIded SKIN Chelene Knight

“The city, the body, the past—these are the strands that Knight triumphantly weaves together in Braided Skin.” —Wayde Compton, author and Director, Creative Writing, SFU

Braided Skin is the vibrant telling of experiences of mixed ethnicity, urban child- hood, poverty and youthful dreams through various voices. Knight writes a confident rhythm of poetry, prose and erasure by using the recurring image of braiding—a different metaphor than “mixing,” our default when speaking the language of race. In the title poem, “Braided Skin,” this terminology shifts, to entwining and crossing, holding together but always displaying the promise or threat of unravelling. This is just as all tellings of family, history and relationships must be—“Skin that carries stories of missing middles.” When speaking about race, Knight raises the question, then drops it, and the image becomes other objects, then abstraction, and memory—finally becoming Poetry Mother Tongue Publishing • March 2015 something “she breathes in” actively. 6 x 8, 96 pages 978-1-896949-50-5 • paperback • $18.95 Author’s home: Vancouver, BC, Canada Chelene Knight was born in Vancouver and is a graduate of The Writer’s Studio at SFU.

2015 Waggoner Cruising Guide T he Complete Boating Reference

TheWaggoner Cruising Guide is often called “. . . the Bible for Northwest Cruising”. Each year it is extensively updated to provide the latest information covering each cruising area along with detailed listings of moorage and fuel facilities. There’s text on anchorages, local knowledge, the “flavour” of each area, some history, and list on things to see and do. Lots of maps and photos, too. (The Waggoner contains 150 maps and 375 photos.) The Waggoner’s maps, showing the coverage of each chapter, the harbours, and individual marinas, are one of its most popular features. They show approach routes and facilities, and take much of the anxiety out of entering a harbour for the first time. Maps of individual marinas detail the entrances and markers, shoal areas, dock layout, and location of the guest moorage and key facilities. The Waggoner is an easy reference to use. To find the page you need, turn to Travel/Boating Fine Edge • January 2015 the index, table of contents, or the locator maps in the front of the book.

RIGHTS: World, all languages More than a catalog of listings and maps, the Waggoner is praised as a “good read.” BISAC: TRV026000: TRAVEL/Special Interest/General The Waggoner is full of navigation tips, weather lore, anchoring ideas, and local knowledge. Serious sidebar features and descriptions explain tide-rips, reversing tidal rapids, stern-tie lines, shellfish toxins, and more. Lighter pieces and descrip- tions include the “lost-in-the-’50s” flavor of downtown Olympia; the proper atti- tude while waiting at the Ballard Locks (“it takes as long as it takes, and that’s how it is”); and the discovery of a genuine fur-bearing trout (very rare) in Prince Rupert. These stories are intended to entertain but also instruct, giving an “insider’s look” at hazards, joys, and just plain facts of Northwest boating. Things change. Don’t get caught without the latest cruising information for 2015.
