Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER Alexandra Morton has been called "the Jane Goodall of Canada" because of her passionate thirty-year fight to save British Columbia's wild salmon. Her account of that fight is both inspiring in its own right and a roadmap of resistance. Alexandra Morton came north from California in the early 1980s, following her first love—the northern resident orca. Then, in 1989, industrial aquaculture moved into the region, chasing the whales away. Soon Alex had shifted her scientific focus to documenting the infectious diseases and parasites that pour from the ocean farm pens of Atlantic salmon into the migration routes of wild Pacific salmon, and then to proving their disastrous impact on wild salmon and the entire ecosystem of the coast. Alex stood against the farms, first representing her community, then alone, and at last as part of an uprising in which ancient Indigenous governance resisted a province and a country that wouldn't obey their own court rulings. She has used her science, many acts of protest and the legal system in her unrelenting efforts to save wild salmon and ultimately the whales—a story that reveals her own perseverance and bravery, but also shines a bright light on the ways other humans doggedly resist the truth. Here, she brilliantly calls those humans to account for the sake of us all.

Canadian Wild Flowers: Selections from the Writings of Miss Helen M. Johnson

Book Description
Canadian Wild Flowers is a biography about the reflective and religious musings of the introspective and thoughtful Miss Helen M. Johnson. Readers will enjoy these nuanced and dreamy ideas about God and life. Excerpt: "It was at "The Outlet" of this lake there was born, Oct. 27, 1834, Helen Mar, the youngest daughter of Abel B. and Polly JOHNSON; and there she spent—except the time devoted to attending or teaching school—almost her entire life. Of cities she knew nothing by experience, but as her reading was extensive she knew much of the world by mental surveys. The book of Nature was her delight. Its illustrations of stones and streams, lakes and rivers, mountains and forests, birds and flowers, were ever attractive to her."

Book Description
"William Briggs prepared a numbered fourth edition of 'Canadian Wild Flowers' in Toronto, 1895. Agnes painted more plates, printed from the 1869 stones, which she had stored in Ottawa. Following typical Briggs practices, she paid for the letterpress and accepted a commission on books the firm sold. The title-plate assigns copyright to 'Agnes Chamberlin, Lakefield, Ontario' ... About 121 copies were sold, most signed 1895 on a maroon limitation page."--Alexander Globe, "The Story of 'Canadian Wildflowers'" (2015)
