One of the country’s most distinguished writers and publishers
returns to her roots to explore the consequences of democracy in
the former Hapsburg lands
In 1989 the Berlin Wall was dismantled. Communism gave way to democracy. Since that time the former borderlands of the long defunct Hapsburg Empire and the more recently dispersed Soviet Empire have been trying to invent their own versions of democracy and market-driven economics. But these experiments have led to a widening gap between rich and poor. The worldwide economic crisis has severely tested Central Europe’s determination to live peaceably, and there are many disquieting signs of old hatreds and racial tensions returning.
Author Anna Porter travels through the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia to speak with leading intellectuals, politicians, former dissidents and the champions of aggrieved memories. She interviews great figures of the revolution (Václav Havel, Adam Michnik, George Konrád) and its new custodians, among them Radek Sikorski and Ferenc Gyurcsány, and also examines the younger generation with little or no experience of Communism and no interest in its aftermath. She visits Poland’s Institute of National Remembrance, Prague’s Jewish Museum and Hungary’s House of Terror, each an attempt to reckon with dark episodes of history.
The Ghosts of Europe is an exploration of power, nationalism, racism and denial in nations with a tumultuous history and an uncertain future.
AnnA Porter spent her early childhood in Hungary. Her family fled after the 1956 revolution, and she lived in New Zealand before coming to Canada in 1969. The founder and publisher of Key Porter Books, she is the author of three crime novels and an acclaimed memoir, The Storyteller. Her most recent book, Kasztner’s Train, won the Canadian Jewish Book Award and the Nereus Writers’ Trust Non-Fiction Prize. Since 2007, she has been writing about Central Europe for Maclean’s and The Globe and Mail. She lives in Toronto.

A Governor General’s Award–winning author recounts the
turbulent years during which a group of young Canadian painters
went from obscurity to international renown
Beginning in 1912, Defiant Spirits traces the artistic development of Tom Thomson and the future members of the Group of Seven over a dozen years in Canadian history. Working in an eclectic and sometimes controversial blend of modernist styles, they produced what an English critic celebrated in the 1920s as the “most vital group of paintings” of the 20th century. Inspired by Cézanne, Van Gogh and other modernist artists, they tried to interpret the Ontario landscape in light of the strategies of the international avant-garde. Based after 1914 in the purpose-built Studio Building for Canadian Art, the young artists embarked on what Lawren Harris called “an all-engrossing adventure”: travelling north into the Canadian Shield and forging a style of painting appropriate to what they regarded as the unique features of Canada’s northern landscape.
Sumptuously illustrated, rigorously researched and drawn from archival documents and letters, Defiant Spirits constitutes a “group biography,” reconstructing the men’s aspirations, frustrations and achievements. It details not only the lives of Tom Thomson and the members of the Group of Seven but also the political and social history of Canada during a time when art exhibitions were venues for debates about Canadian national identity and cultural worth.
Ross K ing is the Canadian author of three books on Italian history and art: Michelangelo and the Pope’s Ceiling, Machiavelli: Philosopher of Power and Brunelleschi’s Dome: How a Renaissance Genius Reinvented Architecture, which won the 2001 Book Sense Book of the Year Award for Adult Nonfiction. His study of French Impressionism, The Judgment of Paris, won the Governor General’s Award for Non-Fiction in Canada. He lives in England, near Oxford.

The extraoardinary and dramatic story of the chocolate
pioneers—as told by one of the descendants of the Cadbury
dynasty—ending with Kraft’s recent takeover of the empire
wIth A cAst of characters straight from a Victorian novel, Chocolate Wars tells the story of the great chocolatier dynasties—the Lindts, Frys, Hersheys, Marses and Nestlés—through the prism of the Cadburys. Chocolate was consumed unrefined and unprocessed as a rather bitter, fatty drink for the wealthy elite until the late 19th century, when the Swiss discovered a way to blend it with milk and unleashed a product that would storm every market in the world.
Thereafter, one of the great global business rivalries unfolded as each chocolate maker attempted to dominate its domestic market and innovate recipes for chocolate that would set it apart from its rivals. The contest was full of dramatic contradictions: the Cadburys were austere Quakers who found themselves making millions from an indulgent product; Kitty Hershey could hardly have been more flamboyant, yet her husband was moved by the Cadburys’ tradition of philanthropy. Each company was a product of its unique time and place, yet all of them shared one thing: they want to make the best chocolate in the world.
Chocolate Wars divulges the visions and ideals that inspired these royal chocolate families and, above all, the mouth-watering chocolate concoctions they created that have driven a global transformation of one of our favourite treats. And with the recent purchase of Cadbury’s by mega–food manufacturer Kraft, the story is brought rapidly into the present.
DeBorAh cADBury is a writer, award-winning documentary producer for the bbc, the author of seven books and a relative of the famous Quaker family that gave its name to one of the world’s most famous brands of chocolate.

An impassioned insider’s view of the Canadian soldier’s war in
Afghanistan and why it matters
A l Ine In the sAnD takes up where the bestselling fob Doc left off—this time, with a focus on the Canadian soldier in Afghanistan.
What Captain Wiss saw in Afghanistan during his first tour there in 20 07 –08 convinced him that this conflict was a rare example of a moral war. When the Canadian Forces asked him to return to the combat area, he agreed. Once again, he kept a diary. This time, he wrote something completely different.
The conflict in Afghanistan continues to command the nation’s attention. Written in an accessible and engaging style, A Line in the Sand’s goal is to ensure that the efforts, sacrifices and achievements of those Canadians who served with such distinction are never forgotten.
Illustrated with over 50 colour photographs, A Line in the Sand tells us about virtually every kind of soldier fighting in Afghanistan: the bomb technician, the woman who lugs heavy artillery shells, the engineer, the tank driver, the combat medic, the “grunt.” We accompany Dr. Wiss as he treats the casualties of war—Canadian, Afghan (civilian and military) and Taliban. We follow combat patrols through dangerous terrain. We learn about the Afghans, from whom we are seemingly so different yet with whom we share so much.
All profits from A Line in the Sand will be donated to the Military Families Fund, created by former chief of the defence staff General Rick Hillier to assist military families.
cAPtAIn rAy wIss , mD, is an emergency medicine specialist from Sudbury, Ontario, and a member of the Canadian Forces Reserves. From November 2007 to February 2008 and again from May to September 2009, he served with Task Force Afghanistan. Very unusually for a physician, he spent both tours in the combat area, at forward operating bases (fobs) in Kandahar province.

An insider’s account of the Oka crisis and its lessons for Canada
today, where Aboriginal reconciliation has become imperative
on july 11, 1990, tension between white and Mohawk people at Oka, just west of Montreal, took a violent turn. At issue was the town’s plan to turn a piece of disputed land in the community of Kanesatake into a golf course. Media footage of rock-throwing white residents and armed, masked Mohawk Warriors facing police across barricades shocked Canadians and galvanized Aboriginal people from coast to coast. In August, Quebec Premier Robert Bourassa called for the Canadian army to step in.
Harry Swain was deputy minister of Indian Affairs throughout the 78-day standoff, and his recreation of events is dramatic and opinionated. Swain writes frankly about his own role and offers fascinating profiles of the high-level players on the government’s side—Quebec Native Affairs Minister John Ciaccia, federal Indian Affairs Minister Tom Siddon, Chief of the Defence Staff General John de Chastelain, Premier Robert Bourassa and Prime Minister Brian Mulroney. Swain offers rare insight into the workings of government in a time of crisis, but he also traces what he calls the 20 0 -year tail of history and shows how the Mohawk experience reflects the collision between European and Aboriginal cultures.
Twenty years on, health, social and economic indicators for Aboriginal Canadians are still shameful. The well-funded “Indian industry” is a national disgrace, Swain says, and the Indian Act is in urgent need of replacement. Identifying current flashpoints for Aboriginal land rights across the country, he argues that true reconciliation will not be possible until government commits to meaningful reform.
hArry swAIn worked in nine federal departments between 1971 and 1995, serving as deputy minister of Indian and Northern Affairs from 1987 to 1992. He is currently director of the Canadian Institute for Climate Studies and a research associate at the University of Victoria‘s Centre for Global Studies. He lives in Victoria, British Columbia.

Two epic journeys along the Silk Road, past and present, offer a
riveting and cautionary tale about the breathtaking rise of China
on July 6, 1906, Baron Gustaf Mannerheim boarded the midnight train from St. Petersburg, charged by Czar Nicholas ii to secretly collect intelligence on the Qing Dynasty’s sweeping reforms that were radically transforming China. The last czarist agent in the so-called Great Game, Mannerheim chronicled almost every facet of China’s modernization, from education reform and foreign investment to Tibet’s struggle for independence.
On July 6, 20 0 6, writer Eric Enno Tamm boards that same train, intent on following in Mannerheim’s footsteps. Initially banned from China, Tamm devises a cover and retraces Mannerheim’s route across the Silk Road, discovering both eerie similarities and seismic differences between the Middle Kingdoms of today and a century ago.
Along the way, Tamm offers piercing insights into China’s past that raise troubling questions about its future. Can the Communist Party truly open China to the outside world yet keep Western ideas such as democracy and freedom at bay, just as Qing officials mistakenly believed? What can reform during the late Qing Dynasty teach us about the spectacular transformation of China today? “Study the past if you would divine the future,” wrote Confucius. Tamm’s quest turns out to be a cautionary tale.
eR ic enno Tamm is an author, journalist and analyst with more than 15 years’ experience in the media and non-profit sector. His first book, Beyond the Outer Shores: The Untold Story of Ed Ricketts, was a Kiriyama Prize Notable Book in 2005. He holds a master’s degree in journalism from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles and a master’s degree in European affairs from Lund University in Sweden. He currently lives and works in Ottawa, Ontario. www.horsethatleaps.com

A beguiling and bizarre collection of stories from a remarkable
new voice in Canadian fiction
mAtthew trAfforD’s storIes bristle with delightful oddity and derring-do, while always paying heed to the frailties of the human heart. Whether they’re tracking disappeared loved ones in Paris, making cyber deals with the devil or agonizing about whether to honour the glories of God or applied science, the characters in these stories are as richly imaginative and passionate as their author.
Set in the crosshairs of science and faith, with an unflinching focus on form and language, these stories illuminate the magical in the mundane and satirically explore the depths of urban culture. They are the strange episodes that accrue along the margins of the knowable: a grotesque statuette unexpectedly frees a dying man from his silence, the Canadian government launches a controversial reparations plan after a devastating crime, and a passionately devout scientist clones Jesus Christ from the dna contained in holy relics. The Divinity Gene announces the arrival of a brave and exciting new talent in Canadian fiction.
mAtthew j . trAfforD’s fiction has appeared in The Malahat Review and Matrix and has been anthologized in I.V. Lounge Nights and Darwin’s Bastards: Astounding Tales from Tomorrow. He has won the Far Horizons Award for Short Fiction and an honourable mention at the National Magazine Awards and has twice been shortlisted for the cbc Literary Prize. He lives in Toronto, where he works with deaf college students and performs long-form improv with his brother in their two-person troupe, The Bromos.

A devilishly intelligent new novel by the internationally
bestselling author and Prix Médicis winner
A BlAcK wrIter from Montreal has found the perfect title for his next book: I Am a Japanese Writer. His publisher gives him an advance on the strength of the title alone. The problem is, he can’t seem to write a word of it. He can scarcely summon the energy to put pen to paper, and so he nurses his writer’s block by taking long baths, re-reading the works of Japanese poet Basho and engaging in amorous intrigues with rising pop star Midori and her entourage of vampire girls.
For the writer, though, the title isn’t just a title: he really does believe he is a Japanese writer. He makes this declaration in a mall, and, the next thing he knows, he’s an international celebrity. The book becomes a cult phenomenon, even though he still hasn’t written a word of it. In Japan, it sets off a cultural revolution. A Japanese writer even publishes a book called I Am a Malagasy Writer. On the nightly news, a Japanese officer declares, “I Am a Korean Soldier.” No wonder a pair of attachés from the Japanese embassy has been following our hero around.
At first, he is delighted to discover his celebrity. But things quickly go wrong. Part postmodern fantasy, part Kafkaesque nightmare and part travelogue to the inner reaches of the self, I Am a Japanese Writer calls into question everything we think we know about what—and who—makes a work of art.
DAny lAferr Ière worked as a journalist in his native Haiti during the notorious Duvalier regime, immigrating to Canada in 1976. He is the author of several acclaimed novels and the recipient of numerous awards, including the Prix rfo du Livre 2002 and Le Grand Prix du livre de Montréal 2009, and in 2009 he was named Quebec Personality of the Year.

Racial and sexual politics collide in this cult classic that launched
Laferrière as one of North America’s finest literary provocateurs
“A heady meditation, a psychic tussle that resonates with the furious stuff in James Baldwin’s essays or Louis Armstrong’s smiling trumpet or Martin Luther King’s oratory… honest, brash, unsappy, new.” t H e V i l l A G e V o i c e
“Sexual politics at its best and most literal. There are layers and layers of meaning to be untangled in this novel. It is at once humorous, profound, ribald and relentlessly didactic.” c H A r l A t A n

BrI l l IAnt AnD tense , Dany Laferrière’s first novel, How to Make Love to a Negro without Getting Tired, is as fresh and relevant today as when it was first published in 1985. With raunchy humor and a working-class intellectualism, Laferrière’s narrator wanders the slums of Montreal, has sex with white women, and writes a book to save his life.
With this novel, Laferrière began a series of internationally acclaimed social and political novels about the love of the world, and the world of sex, including Heading South and I Am a Japanese Writer.
DAny lAferr Ière was born in Port-au-Prince in 1953. He moved to Montreal in June 1976. A journalist, tv and radio host, and screenwriter, Laferrière is the author of 14 novels, including the international bestseller L’énigme du retour, which won the Prix Médicis in 2009 and will be published in English by Douglas & McIntyre in 2011. He lives in Montreal.

A visually stunning portrayal of the turbulent rise of Abstract
Expressionism in Canada
eleVen ABstrAct exPress IonIst artists banded together in 1953 to break through the barricades of traditional art at a time when Canadian and European landscapes were about the only paintings collectors were buying. Hungry for recognition, raging against the art establishment that was shutting them out, they decided to form Painters Eleven, expecting they would gain attention as a group, rather than going solo.
Following their first group exhibition in February 1954 , the public response echoed the sentiments that Abstract Expressionism had elicited worldwide—largely mockery and bewilderment. Nevertheless, the exhibition attracted wide public interest, and after two or three more Painters Eleven exhibitions, the criticism transformed to a crescendo of acclaim from critics and collectors alike.
Although the group disbanded in 1960, many of the Painters Eleven became icons of Canadian contemporary art. Their dynamic works are held in Canada’s main public art galleries and in prestigious galleries around the world and are still avidly sought after by public institutions and private and corporate art collectors.
Expertly researched by Iris Nowell, an acclaimed biographer with extensive knowledge of the Canadian art world, and featuring more than 290 full-colour reproductions, Painters Eleven brings readers and art-lovers face to face with one of Canada’s most exciting periods of art history.
Ir Is nowell is the author of six books as well as countless newspaper and magazine articles on topics ranging from sports to social issues. She was the first of the new generation of women to write on the sports pages of The Globe and Mail. Her subsequent work includes the well-received Women Who Give Away Millions: Portraits of Canadian Philanthropists and the artist biography Joyce Wieland: A Life in Art and her memoir Hot Breakfast for Sparrows: My Life with Harold Town. Nowell lives in Toronto.

A gorgeous retrospective on the transformation of Inuit art in the
20th century, mirroring the vast and poignant cultural changes in
the North
In resPonse to a rapidly changing Arctic environment, Inuit have had to cope with the transition from a traditional lifestyle to the disturbing realities of globalization and climate change. Inuit art in the latter half of the 20th century reflects the reciprocal stimulus of contact with Euro-Canadians and embodies the evolution of a modern Inuit aesthetic that springs from an ancient cultural context, creating an exciting new hybridized art form.
Inuit Modern: Art from the Samuel and Esther Sarick Collection situates modern Inuit art within a larger framework that reinterprets the Canadian Arctic. Essays by leading Canadian scholars in the field including Ingo Hessel, Robert McGhee, Christine Laloude, Heather Igloliorte, Dorothy Eber and Bernadette Driscoll Engelstad examine the social, political and cultural transformation through the dynamic lens of colonial influence and agency. Inuit Modern also features interviews with David Ruben Piqtoukun and Zacharias Kunuk.

A lush tribute to both an iconic Newfoundland artist and the
vibrant culture his work depicts
cAnADIAn Art Ist DAVID BlAcKwooD has been telling stories about Newfoundland in the form of epic visual narratives for the past 30 years. His stories draw on childhood memories, dreams, superstitions, the oral tradition and the political realities of the community on Bonavista Bay, where he was born and raised. His collection of works has created an iconography of Newfoundland that is as universal as it is personal, as mythic as it is rooted in reality, and as timeless as it is linked to specific events.
Black Ice—a comprehensive and sumptuously illustrated retrospective—features over 70 prints spanning 40 years of the artist’s work and features essays by Blackwood, Michael Crummey, Sean Cadigan and the Art Gallery of Ontario’s Dr. Katharine Lochnan. It also features essays by scholars based in Canada and Ireland, including an essay on the environment by Dr. Martin Feely, Head of Earth Sciences at the National University of Ireland in Galway (in collaboration with Dr. Derek Wilton, Department of Earth Sciences, Memorial University) and an article on mumming by Caoimhe Ni Shuilleabhain.

A revealing look at the holistic, community-centred philosophy
behind Bing Thom’s internationally acclaimed architecture
forgotten sPAces , Decl In Ing malls and sterilized neighborhoods seem like odd places to find inspiration. But it is these awkward places that have driven much of the work of Bing Thom Architects.
This highly visual book outlines the recent work and thoughts of Bing Thom Architects (bta), recently awarded firm of the year by the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. The book opens with a particular focus on bta’s most recent project, the Arena Stage in Washington, D.C. It takes the reader through the creative process, featuring detailed descriptions and illustrations of this beloved regional theatre’s transformation into what will be the second-largest performing arts centre in Washington.
Architects, urban planners and even those in the theatre community will all appreciate Bing Thom Works for its informal essays about how the firm approaches each of its projects as both a philosophical and a practical process. The essays are followed by seven well-illustrated examples of recent bta projects, ranging from an intimate single-family dwelling to a large-scale urban intervention, that have changed their communities.
BIng thom was born in Hong Kong and immigrated to Vancouver as a child. He studied architecture at the University of British Columbia and the University of California, Berkeley. Early in his career he worked with Arthur Erickson, where he oversaw projects such as the Robson Square courthouse complex in Vancouver and Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto. In the early 1980s he established Bing Thom Architects, and this firm quickly established a reputation for innovative design on a wide range of projects. Thom is a Member of the Order of Canada and a Fellow of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. He lives in Vancouver.

A vivid portrait of British Columbia—its people and places—
in words, sounds and images collected by a master journalist
Between 1959 AnD 1966, the late cbc Radio journalist Imbert Orchard travelled across British Columbia with recording engineer Ian Stephen interviewing nearly a thousand of the province’s pioneers. The resulting collection—2,700 hours of audiotapes describing both extraordinary events and everyday experiences—is considered by historians to be one of the best sources of primary information about the province. To the general public, however, the tales in these tapes remain virtually unknown.
Combining text, archival photographs and the original sound recordings from the cbc Archives onto three cds, Voices of British Columbia draws 24 stories from this collection to immerse us in daily life in the early 20th century. You’ll meet Sarah Glassey, a spirited homesteader who carried a rifle and bagged more birds than any man in the Kispiox Valley. You’ll hear Bill LaChance, the sole survivor of the 1910 Glacier Snowslide, describe that tragic avalanche. And you’ll discover how Great Chief Kwah of Fort St. James spared the life of James Douglas, future governor of British Columbia.
By turns sad, contemplative, insightful and funny, these stories reveal as much about the spirit and resilience of people as they do about the history of the province.
roBert BuDD, known to many as Lucky, holds an ma in history, with a focus on oral history. He has worked with the cbc and the Royal British Columbia Museum preserving and restoring one of the largest oral history collections in the world. He lives in Victoria, British Columbia.
ImBert orchArD moved from England to B.C. after the Second World War. The cbc hired him as a regional editor for television scripts, and later he began documentary history programs for cbc Radio. Before he died in 1991, he donated his recordings to the B.C. Archives.

A new collection of warm, wise and inspiring stories from the
author of the bestselling One Native Life
s Ince I ts PuBl IcAt Ion in 2008, readers and reviewers have embraced Richard Wagamese’s One Native Life. “In quiet tones and luminous language,” wrote the Winnipeg Free Press, “Wagamese shares his hurts and joys, inviting readers to find the ways in which they are joined to him and to consider how they might be joined to others.”
In this new book, Richard Wagamese again invites readers to accompany him on his travels. This time, his focus is on stories: how they shape us, how they empower us, how they change our lives. Ancient and contemporary, cultural and spiritual, funny and sad, the tales are grouped according to the four Ojibway storytelling principles: balance, harmony, knowledge and intuition.
Whether the topic is learning from his grade five teacher about Martin Luther King, gleaning understanding from a wolf track, lighting a fire for the first time without matches or finding the universe in an eagle feather, these stories exhibit the warmth, wisdom and generosity that made One Native Life so popular. As always, in these pages, the land serves as Wagamese’s guide. And as always, he finds that true home means not only community but conversation—good, straight-hearted talk about important things. We all need to tell our stories, he says. Every voice matters.
rIchArD wAgAmese is an Ojibway from the Wabaseemoong First Nation in northwestern Ontario. He is the author of four novels, including the award-winning Dream Wheels. His autobiographical book For Joshua was published to critical acclaim, and One Native Life was selected as one of the Globe and Mail’s Top 100 Books of the Year. He lives outside Kamloops, British Columbia.

A bestselling historian returns with a visually sumptuous look at
how the railroad transformed North America
The Rai lRoad changed the face of North America forever, allowing the its economy to become industrialized and catalyzing settlement and growth within the continent. People and goods could now move vast distances, time zones were standardized, and military use of the railroads transformed the nature of war.
This latest book in the popular Historical Atlas series outlines the development of the railroad system from its very beginnings around 1830 through to today’s freight railroads and government passenger services. It features an unprecedented 40 0 -plus contemporary and historical railroad maps, photographs and many other railroadiana illustrations.
Here is a colourful, integrated approach to the origins and development of railroads—their heyday, decline and modern rebirth—in both the United States and Canada, for anyone who loves art books, history, maps or railroads.
“To say that historian and geographer Derek Hayes loves maps is an understatement… Hayes has reproduced some truly striking examples of cartography.” S pa c i n g m a g a z i n E on Historical Atlas of Toronto

SAWLER
frank mckenna: beyond politics is a compelling and surprising portrait of one of Canada’s most intriguing and highly respected politicians and business leaders, and is a must-read for anyone who wants to unravel the mystery of the only man in Canadian history to have had the prime minister’s office within his grasp, only to turn away from it—not once, but twice.
With unfettered access to McKenna himself, biographer Harvey Sawler examines McKenna’s life—from rural New Brunswick poor boy to student leader, from news-making criminal lawyer to tireless political campaigner, and from a premier who swept every seat as he strode into power to, most recently, a diplomat, corporate dynamo and much-sought orator. Sawler pays particular attention to McKenna’s eventful post-premier life, most especially his brief but dramatic stint as Canada’s ambassador to the United States.
Throughout McKenna’s life in the public eye, he has swept along a legion of watchers, admirers of his plainspoken common sense, singular brand of leader-ship that transcended partisanship, and innate bal-ance of business instinct with social consciousness. It was with no small measure of disappointment that supporters accepted his decision to step away from the political arena.
Sawler explores that decision and the extraordi-nary subsequent chapter as events unfold that could have occurred only when McKenna left behind the brightly lit political arena. At least for now.
With insights from former prime ministers, pre-miers, ambassadors, diplomats, family and friends, Frank McKenna is a fascinating, inspiring look at per-haps the best prime minister Canada never had.
harvey sawler is a well-known Canadian tourism consultant and the author of seven books, including the non-fiction works Twenty-First Century Irvings, Last Canadian Beer: The Moosehead Story and On the Road with Dutch Mason (with co-author David Bedford), and the novels The Penguin Man, One Single Hour and Saving Mrs. Kennedy. Born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario, he has spent most of his life in Atlantic Canada and lives at Bellevue Cove, Prince Edward Island, with his partner, Charlotte Stewart.

“[McKenna] not only sought the best for his province, but also the well-being
of Canada and in so doing never backed down from his belief that good gov-
ernment fosters good jobs, that economic growth provides the strongest
base for progress, and that pride and hope are essential components of a
successful society, and of a successful people.”
the right honourable paul martin (from the foreword)
“Harvey Sawler ably recounts Frank McKenna’s remarkable career, including
his decade as premier of New Brunswick and his posting as Canadian ambas-
sador to the United States. It is a portrait of an extremely able, intelligent,
dedicated public servant and private citizen. Frank McKenna is an old fash-
ioned man with modern ideas. I’ve been in public events with Frank all across
Canada and seen the respect and affection Canadians have for him. This
book will tell you why.” president bill clinton

“An incredibly well-crafted trip into the hell and horror of the American war experience in Iraq, as seen by the men who lived it.”s c ot t tay lo r , author of Unembedded
“Brilliant, heartbreaking, deeply true. The Good Soldiers offers the most intimate view of life and death in a 21st-century combat unit I have ever read. Unsparing, unflinching, and, at times, unbearable.” r i c k at k i n s o n , author of In the Company of Soldiers
“This is the best account I have read of the life of one unit in the Iraq war. It is closely observed, carefully recorded and beautifully written. David Finkel doesn’t just take you into the lives of the soldiers—he takes you deep into their nightmares.” t h o m a s e . r i c ks , author of Fiasco
“David Finkel has written the most unforgettable book of the Iraq war—a masterpiece that will far outlast the fighting. Moving through his chapters is the closest thing to being there.” dav i d m a r a n i s s , author of They Marched into Sunlight
“This is the finest book yet written on the platoon-level combat of the Iraq war. Its language, rhythm, battle scenes, injuries, deaths and suffering are unforgettable—raw, moving, and rendered with literary control… No one who reads this book will soon forget its imagery, words or characters.” s t e v e c o l l , author of The Bin Ladens
David Finkel has been a staff writer for The Washington Post since 1990 and has worked for the paper’s national, foreign, and magazine teams. He has reported from
Africa, Asia, Central America, Europe, and throughout the United States and was part of the Post’s war coverage in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kosovo. Finkel won the Pulitzer Prize in 2006 for a series of stories about U.S.-funded democracy
efforts in Yemen and has been a Pulitzer finalist three other times. Finkel lives in Silver Spring, Maryland, with his wife and two daughters.
It was the last-chance moment of the war. In January 2007 President George W. Bush announced a new strategy for Iraq. He called it the surge. “Many listening tonight will ask why this effort will succeed when previous operations to secure Baghdad did not. Well, here are the differences,” he told a skepti-cal nation. Among those listening were the young, optimistic army infantry soldiers of the 2-16, the battalion nicknamed the Rangers. About to head to a vicious area of Baghdad, they decided the difference would be them.
Fifteen months later, the soldiers returned home forever changed. Pulitzer Prize–winning Washington Post reporter David Finkel was with them in Baghdad, almost every grueling step of the way.
What was the true story of the surge? And was it really a success? Those are the questions Finkel grapples with in his remark-able report from the front lines. Combining the action of Mark Bowden’s Black Hawk Down with the literary brio of Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried, The Good Soldiers is an unforgettable work of reportage. And in telling the stories of these good soldiers, the heroes and the ruined, Finkel has also pro-duced an eternal tale—not just of the Iraq War but of all wars, for all time.

“Finkel, a Pulitzer Prize–winning reporter at the Washington Post, describes the war on the ground, day by day, for members of an Army battalion sent to Baghdad during the surge in 20 07. With a novelistic sense of narrative and character, Finkel shows the fallout that the decision to invade Iraq and the war’s ‘ruinous beginnings’ would have on a group of individual soldiers (average age 19), who by various twists of fate found themselves stationed in a hot spot on the edge of Baghdad.” n A t i o n A l P o s t

He was silent but strong, from an untamed
land where love and buckskin walked a sensual path.
She was pale and virginal, unversed in the ways of aboriginal passion.
Her heart beat wildly as he moved towards her,
because the night was dark and so was he.

i n t r o d u c t i o n b y d a r c y n i c h o l a s
da r cy n i c h o l a s is a master Maori painter, curator and writer who has championed the cause of Maori art since 1966. Working principally in acrylic paint on paper and canvas, he is also a maker of painted wooden masks. His paintings and sculpture are in public collections in New Zealand, Britain and Germany and he has exhib-ited widely, including at the Curzon Club (Lon-don), Heard Museum (Phoenix), Field Museum (Chicago), Burke Museum (Seattle), University of Hawaii (Honolulu) and the Fire Station Gallery (New York). He is currently general manager of cultural services for Porirua City, New Zealand.
n i g e l r e a d i n g was born in Germany and educated in Britain. In 1986 he started working at the Inuit Gallery in Vancouver and later became the curator for the Inuit collection, organizing many solo and group shows. He is one of the founding partners of the Spirit Wrestler Gallery, where he oversees the Inuit collection. In 1999 he also became the curator of Maori art, leading the representation of contemporary Maori art in North America. His previous book is the critically acclaimed Cape Dorset Sculpture.
g a ry w yat t was educated at the Alberta Col-lege of Art and the University of British Columbia, where he also interned in museum studies and Northwest Coast art at the Museum of Anthro-pology. He was curator of the Northwest Coast collection at the Inuit Gallery from 1987 to 1995. Since 1995, he has been a curator at the Spirit Wrestler Gallery in Vancouver. His previous books, Spirit Faces: Contemporary Masks of the Northwest Coast and Mythic Beings: Spirit Art of the Northwest Coast, have been international best-sellers.
Th i s s p ec tac u l a r collection celebrates contemporary works from 31 Maori and 15 Northwest Coast artists and is published to
coincide with a new show at the Spirit Wrestler Gallery in Vancouver, Canada, in February/March 2006. Building on more than three decades of events, conferences and artist exchanges that have introduced artists and audiences to the similarities between Maori and Northwest Coast art, Manawa explores the themes of sky, water and land that are common to both cultures.
At the heart of this collection are stunning photographs of more than 60 pieces, each of which was created especially for Manawa. Featured are works from many renowned artists, including paintings by Robert Davidson and Sandy Adsett, ceramics by Manos Nathan and Wi Taepa, mixed media by Robert Jahnke and Susan Point, weaving by Isabel Rorick and Christina Wirihana, and wood sculptures by Dempsey Bob and Lyonel Grant. There are also many pieces by a new generation of exciting young artists, including wood carvings by Roi Toia, Stan Bevan and Todd Couper, mixed media by Israel Tangaroa Birch, stone sculptures by Lewis Gardiner and Christian White, and glasswork by Preston Singletary.
Alongside each work of art is a statement by the artist, which provides insight into the work’s origins, ancestry and genealogy. Also providing context for the art is an introduction by master Maori painter, curator and writer Darcy Nicholas, which describes the history of New Zealand’s contemporary indigenous art movement. An essay by Nigel Reading and Gary Wyatt of the Spirit Wrestler Gallery highlights the importance of cross-cultural projects and argues that cultural fusion has become the single greatest influence on the evolution of aboriginal art and culture worldwide.
Beautifully designed and produced, Manawa is a must-have for lovers of aboriginal art as well as those interested in cross-cultural exchange.

“… written with virtuosity, acerbic humour and a quick and
nervous style that captures the emotion page after page.”

translated by wayne g rady
a n o v e l
was born in Port-au-
Prince in 1953. He moved to Montreal
in June 1976. A journalist, tv and radio
host, screenwriter, director and
spokesperson for World Book
and Copyright Day, Laferrière
is the author of twelve novels,
including the international sen-
sation How to Make Love to a Negro
(1987), which was made into a
feature film. He has won numer-
ous awards for his writing, including the
first Prix Carbet des lycéens 2000, the Prix
rfo du Livre 2002 and the 2006 Governor
General’s award for Je suis fou de Vava, his
first novel for children. He lives in Montreal.
is the author of eleven
books, the editor of fourteen literary anthol-
ogies and the former editor of Harrowsmith

Prize for Literary Translation. He lives in
Kingston, Ontario.
Christina, Brenda, Laura, Ellen,
Sue and Becky, six beautiful and cultured
middle-aged women who have come to the
sun-drenched island of Haiti in search of
something new. No longer desired by the
men from their northern homes, they are
drawn to the steamy climate and beautiful
adolescent bodies of this Caribbean island,
hoping that both will keep them eternally
young. But their dreams and fantasies blind
them to the harsh reality that these boys
live under a brutal dictatorship. Still, the
women are ready to sacrifice everything: the
flesh but also the hearts of these Haitian
boys. Can desire be purchased? Who wins,
and who loses in this transaction? And who
really holds power when desire is the force
driving all human history?
Made into an award-winning film star-
ring Charlotte Rampling, this provocative
novel takes us into the world of artists, rap-
pers, Voodoo priests, hotel owners, uptight
Parisian journalists and partner-swapping
Haitian lovers, all desperately trying to
balance their own happiness with the need
to survive. It explores the lines between
sexual liberation and exploitation, artistic
freedom and appropriation, independence
and colonialism, and displays the wild tal-
ent of an author at the height of his powers.

Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas$28.95 cloth
Referencing a classic Haida oral
narrative, this stunning full-colour
graphic novel documents the tragic
story of a leader so blinded by
revenge that he leads his community to
the brink of war and destruction.
Red is the prideful leader of a small
village in the islands off the northwest
coast of British Columbia. His sister
was abducted years ago by a band of
raiders. When news comes that his
sister has been spotted in a nearby
village, Red sets out to rescue her and
exact revenge on her captors.
Consisting of 108 pages of hand-
painted illustrations, Red is a
groundbreaking mix of Haida imagery
and Japanese manga. Tragic and
timeless, it is reminiscent of such
classic stories as Oedipus Rex and
Macbeth. Red is an action-packed and
dazzling graphic novel that is also a
cautionary tale about the devastating
effects of rage and retribution.
michael nicoll
yahgulanaas
is a visual artist,
storyteller and
public speaker.
Born and raised
on the North
Pacific islands of

genre called Haida Manga. His work
has been enthusiastically received
internationally and is published in
Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, Spain,
the United States and Canada (English
and French). His books include Flight of
the Hummingbird, A Tale of Two Shamans
and Hachidori, a bestseller in Japan.
He lives in Canada with his wife and
daughter, close to the Two Sisters
mountains on an island in the Salish Sea.
