287 pages including index and two sections of black and white photographic reproductions. "A vivid and realistic portrayal of a Japanese-Canadian community which disappeared in 1942. An admirable accomplishment." - Frank Moritsugu, Journalist. A very important work. Prior to World War II the town of Chemainus ("Chimunesu") on Vancouver Island was home to a thriving community of Japanese Canadians. They were interned in the British Columbia interior in 1942 and not allowed to return until 1949. However, most decided to take up roots elsewhere, and their significant community in Chemainus was relegated to memory. Author attended a 1991 reunion of these people in Chemainus during the O-bon festival. The reunion formed the impetus for this book, which collects poignant personal narratives by Japanese-Canadians about their lives in Chemainus before internment. Faint wear. Clean and unmarked.

656 pages. Author's signature upon title page. At the close of a surgical operation, the surgeons take off their masks and talk about both profession-related and unrelated matters. In the same manner, this narrative novel, presented in trilogy fashion, takes the mask off the medical profession and its practicioners, both generalists and specialists. It presents many underlying secrets that are often not available to the lay public at large. The protaganist, a Canadian surgeon, is revealed in both his professional and private life, his avocations and romances, his family life, challenges, triumphs and defeats.

103 pages. Former owner's information upon half-title page. English Canada's reply to the so-called 'French Fact." Imagine the English Canadians finally having their say about Quebec! There's a chuckle on every page - more than one on many occasions - to help make some of the uglier facts more palatable. A perffect blend of humour and history, of laughter and of shock. Perhaps the first real attempt by English Canadians to say a strong 'phooey' to all the French unrest in Quebec. Accomplished with sophistication and wit... agree with it or not... you'll be entertained greatly and probably slightly educated at the same time. Book
