Due to the nature of Crohn's Disease, many sufferers are ashamed to talk openly about its physical effects and how it has altered their lives. In this candid book, Sonia Glover tells the truth about living with Crohn's Disease. But this book is not only about pain and suffering; it is also a story of strength, determination, and the importance of family and friends in coping with the disease. 
 Coping with Crohn's has educated me about Crohn's in a way that no text ever could. It tells Sonia's story, but it also tells the story of many others who cope with the same problem. It opens your eyes to a disease that still has no cure, only treatments. This is a personal story that shows the pain and frustration that Sonia experienced, but also the strength, courage and downright pigheadedness she has to keep on going and not give in to defeat. -- Dr. Jacqueline M Elliott, BN, MD, CCFP

In 1947, Manhattan socialite Barbara Mundy left a life of privilege and travelled deep into the interior of Labrador, as a volunteer with the Grenfell Mission. She quickly became enamoured with the area’s natural beauty and found it more intriguing than her life among New York’s social elite. She discovered a love for hunting, canoeing, and camping—and for fur trapper Russell Groves. However, accustomed to a life of solitude, Russell had little patience for his new bride’s lack of experience on a trap line. During their first two tumultuous years together, Barbara wrote letters chronicling the difficulties faced by a couple drawn together from vastly different backgrounds. Anne Budgell uses these letters, as well as Barbara Mundy’s diaries and notes, to tell her remarkable story. Dear Everybody brings readers back to a remote place and time, through the eyes of a born adventurer.

Few Canadians have contributed as much as Ed Finn to creating the society we now take for granted. As a journalist in Newfoundland, he defied both his bosses and premier Joey Smallwood by standing up for striking loggers in the late 1950s. He became the first NDP leader in that province, before joining Tommy Douglas in defending the Medicare system Canadians now take for granted. Finn's 70-year career included writing for the Montreal Gazette and the Toronto Star, as well as working for the Canadian Union of Public Employees. He served three years on the board of directors of the Bank of Canada, and most recently has been working with the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. This book is a history of modern-day Canada from the perspective of an outsider, yet one whose talents led him to positions of influence and the corridors of power.

Nova Scotia's maritime heritage is brought to life in the story of an adventurer who traveled the world on an epic solo voyage in a 23-foot sailboat in the 1930s. With only his dog, Togo, as a companion, Captain William Crowell overcame the challenges of an unforgiving ocean. Decades later, his grandson Frank Leaman helped him tell the story of his travels. The Roar of the Sea explores not only his family s history, but also Nova Scotia's seafaring heritage. After the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax included Captain Crowell s solo voyage as part of its permanent Days of Sail exhibit, Frank continued to gather Crowell family history and dig deeper into his grandfather's life. Together with Allison Lawlor, Frank has created a story that weaves Captain Crowell's life into his family's Loyalist roots and personal reflections. The resulting book stands as one grandson's loving tribute to his grandfather - a daring mariner who saw the end of a golden era of wooden ships and iron men.
