Description:
Canadian Plains Research Center/University of Regina, 1988. 169 pp, large 8vo (9 1/4" H). Frontispiece by Arthur Lismer, b&w photographs. "Regina College, opened by the Methodist church in 1911 to offer academic, music and business training to the young people of Saskatchewan, played a vital role in the educational and cultural life of the province during its formative years. The church placed its stamp on the college and on the students who passed through it. Regina College stood for academic excellence, well-rounded character development, and the ideal of social service. James M. Pitsula studies the history of the college from its founding, through its golden years under the leadership of E.W. Stapleford, and its vicissitudes in the 1930s, when the church finally agreed to the takeover of the college by the University of Saskatchewan. (Looks) at the experiences of the students, faculty and others whose lives were touched by the college during a period of great social change."… Read More

Ottawa: Ministry of Environment, 1985. Unpaginated, oblong (8 3/4" H x 11 1/4" D). 113 colour photographs, plus three maps. "Beside the Columbia Icefield, in Banff National Park, lies a narrow valley. One end of the valley is a barren arctic waste, newly formed by the retreat of the ice ages. Gradually, it grades into an alpine meadow and then into a northern coniferous forest. The valley and the glaciers around it gell the story of how the landscapes of Canada were formed, from the great ice ages to this summer's flowers. Partway down the valley there is a cave mouth, the sole entrance to an enormous complex of vaults and passage-ways under the valley and glacier. In the cold darkness of the Castleguard caves water has been forming and enlarging passages for hundreds of thousands of years. Glistening white stalactites, among the purest in the world, have been growing for millennia. Come celebrate Castleguard with the adventurers who have explored and photographed the… Read More

Vancouver: Douglas & McIntyre, 1986. 224 pp, 9 1/4" H. "In this anecdotal recounting of his boyhood years, his experiences in medical school, where he met his wife Janet, also a doctor, and his service in the armed forces during World War II and after, Morris Gibson shows what life is like for a doctor at large. He is a man devoted to healing, whether in England, or in a foothills town in Alberta, a western province of Canada. With his family, he makes his way with skill and intuition, curing when he can, listening and learning when he cannot. He recalls simple people in complex situations, the amazing effects of medical break-throughs, tragedy and triumph. And all is told in his original voice, that of a man who learns not only by seeing his patients as individuals as unique as their medical problems, but by applying his skill as a doctor to a changing world."
