Shockey 2018 Catalog 72.Pdf
TRAVEL TREASURES 2018 SEE AMERICA COAST TO COAST Dear Friends, What a change time makes in modern day travel. Growing up in the 1960’s and 70’s my parents seldom ventured beyond our hometown of Louisville, Ky. On occasion we would visit some relatives in Portland, Tn. but most often Eastview, Ky. was our “vacation” destination of choice. Tere my Dad’s parents lived on a farm with plenty of felds, woods, clean springs to drink water from, and barns to play in. In the evening we could watch westerns on the black and white TV screen. I could only dream of one day possibly getting to go out west. Guess what? Tis year my wife Donna and I did just that. We went on the Black Hills-Grand Tetons-Canadian Rockies Tour in August. Words can’t describe how great this trip was. Te wonder and beauty of God’s grace through this North American creation, what has sometimes been called breathtaking, is no joke. Lots to see and do, if ever possible give this tour a try. It was beyond my dreams. Our desire for you (our Shockey friends) would be to look through this 2018 catalog and maybe fnd a tour of your dreams and become venturous enough to fulfll it. Life is too short not to. Travel is easy, exciting, and relaxing with Shockey Tours. We can provide you with a worry-free vacation, one that ofers you the comfort of having a trained professional guide to care for you within the security of a group, and our professional drivers and comfortable coaches will ensure you the most pleasant trip possible. -

Industrial Algoma and the Myth of Wilderness: Algoma Landscapes and the Emergence of the Group of Seven, 1918-1920
INDUSTRIAL ALGOMA AND THE MYTH OF WILDERNESS: ALGOMA LANDSCAPES AND THE EMERGENCE OF THE GROUP OF SEVEN, 1918-1920 by Allan John Fletcher B.A., The University of British Columbia, 1977 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES THE DEPARTMENT OF FINE ARTS ART HISTORY We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard the University of British Columbia November, v 1989 © Allan Fletcher, 1989 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. 1 further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the head of my department or by his or her representatives.

Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date QCTOGCfr <3, tiff- DE-6 (2/88) ii ABSTRACT In the summer of 1988, casting around for a thesis topic, I chanced on some photographs which stunned me. They were pictures of various sites in the Algoma territory, a region which up to that time I, like many Canadians, knew only from idyllic paintings by J. E. H. MacDonald and other members of the Group of Seven. The discrepancy between the two sets of images was startling. What the camera revealed: railyards, dockyards, cities and towns, dammed rivers, cavernous mines, mountains of slag, razed forests, huge smelters and gigantic milling operations was in striking contrast to the untouched northern wilderness depicted in works like The? Solemn Land. -

Mr. Sportsman, ever stood on the edge of a big "clearing" and mourned the vanishing H forests and the wild life they sheltered? Have you ever sat on the banks of a rapid little river where. perhaps. in days that are gone. you have cast your fly for the speckled beauties that were a-leap in its clear, cool waters-but which waters now. alas. have been harnessed to the turbine and the dynamo? Or. perhaps. vou have retraced your ste'ps toward wooded shores and a lonely highland lake. where. in the past. the brooding silences and "Nature Unspoiled" had ministered to your tired body and drooping spirit-only to find there the march of travel and the touch of civilization which travel brings. But, while "Nature Unspoiled" is constantly retreating, there are still "wilds where the moose and caribou roam;" there are still rollicking streams in whose laughing waters are fish unnumbered; and tucked away in the solitudes are lakes, large and small, deep. -
