Our modern idea of what a healthy landscape looks like and how it functions is distorted by the fur trade that once trapped out millions of beavers from North America's lakes and rivers. Goldfarb shares the powerful story about one of the world's most influential species. He explains how North America was colonized, how our landscapes have changed over the centuries, and how beavers can help us fight drought, flooding, wildfire, extinction, and the ravages of climate change. -- adapted from jacket

The new 'Benjamin January' novel from the best-selling author Abishag Shaw is seeking vengeance for his brother's murder - and Benjamin January is seeking money after his bank crashes. Far beyond the frontier, in the depths of the Rocky Mountains, both are to be found at the great Rendezvous of the Mountain Men: a month-long orgy of cheap booze, shooting-matches, tall tales and cut-throat trading. But at the rendezvous, the discovery of a corpse opens the door to hints of a greater plot, of madness and wholesale murder . . .

What started as a short account of author Daniel J. Demers’ ancestors, including their arrival in Canada and the many challenges they faced while striving to establish a life here, soon morphed into a memoir of the author’s own life as well. While the book still begins by recounting his family’s history before and after their arrival in Canada, the bulk of it focuses on Daniel’s own life experiences, particularly his unique role as an identical twin and the many adventures he’s had while exploring Canada’s natural wonders. As a result, this memoir winds up being a celebration not only of his family’s history but also of the limitless options for escape, adventure, and discovery that Canada has to offer.
