- Abstract
- The largest and most powerful bears on earth live only in the northern reaches of the world. Brown bear, polar bear; related yet distinct, both are forces of nature that have left their mark on humankind. The very heart of wilderness beats within these bears, with ranges spanning countries and continents. Circumpolar Bears explores the lives of brown bears and polar bears found throughout the North – from grizzlies in Canada’s Arctic to brown bears in Finland and Russia, and polar bears from around the world. They have survived 200 million years of evolution, but the next hundred years may bring their greatest challenge yet.
- Notes
- The abstract has been taken directly from the film itself.
- The front reads: "come face to face with the largest bears in the world - the Circumpolar Bears."

- Abstract
- Climate change is at the forefront of public consciousness today. Political initiatives to combat the social and economic effects of changing climate will affect the lives of everyone. Media reports often portray climate scenarios and the range of uncertainty accompanying predictions. How does a reader approach the science behind the headlines? The goal of this book is to explain climate change science by examining the recent Ice Age history so spectacularly exposed in the Canadian Rocky Mountains landscape. Local and global sources of paleoclimate information are combined with dating techniques to unravel the glacial history of the Rockies over the last 30,000 years. The illustrated road log guide can be used by the armchair reader or the traveller to visit the landscape features essential to the interpretation. The Burgess Shale Geoscience Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization dedicated to increasing public understanding of the geosciences. Its teaching themes demonstrate the use of physics, biology, chemistry and mathematics in solving science questions and problems. The diverse program includes public lectures, teacher workshops, school programs and guided hikes. The Foundation conducts educational hikes to the Burgess Shale soft-bodied fossil deposit and the Mt. Stephen trilobite beds, both UNESCO World Heritage sites in Yoho National Park. (From Good Reads)

- Abstract
- In 1910, Bill, a Chicago steel worker accidentally kills his supervisor. He flees to the Texas panhandle with his lover Abby and his little sister Linda, where they work harvesting wheat in the fields of a stoic farmer. When Bill learns that the farmer is ill and has less than a year to live, he encourages Abby to accept the man's attentions. The Farmer and Abby marry, and she and her "siblings" live in the big house, waiting for the Farmer to die, so Abby can inherit, and the three of them live happily ever after. But love seems to be a cure-all: the Farmer seems to be improving--and Abby is no longer seeing this as a marriage of convenience. From a landscape of panoramic vistas, vivid colors, and rich textures comes a timeless American idyll and a gritty evocation of turn-of-the-century labor.

- Abstract
- Canada 1931: The unsociable trapper Johnson lives for himself in the ice-cold mountains near the Yukon river. During a visit in the town he witnesses a dog-fight. He interrupts the game and buys one of the dogs - almost dead already - for $200 against the owner's will. When the owner Hasel complains to Mountie Sergeant Millen, he refuses to take action. But then the loathing breeder and his friends accuse Johnson of murder. So Millen, although sympathetic, has to try to take him under arrest - but Johnson defends his freedom in every way possible.

- Abstract
- The aim of this thesis is to undertake a comprehensive dendroarchaeological-contextual investigation of 35 sites (44 log structures) in Jasper, Banff, and Kootenay National Parks. Through tree-ring analysis and investigations of relevant documents (i.e., archives and interviews), three main objectives are met: (1) an architectural inventory and tree-ring analysis of sampled structures in the three parks; (2) an exploration of remote construction activity in the three parks, in terms of functional, temporal, and spatial distributions, and tree species selection; and (3) a detailed dendroarchaeological-contextual investigation of three structure case studies. The results provide new insights into remote construction activity from the late-nineteenth to early-twentieth century in the three parks. It assists Parks Canada in their attempt to interpret the cultural heritage resources of this area and contributes to the international need to document and explore vernacular architecture.

- Abstract
- A collection of articles that examine many of the struggles that Aboriginal women have faced, and continue to face, in Canada. Sections include: Profiles of Aboriginal Women; Identity; Territory; Activism; Confronting Colonialism; the Canadian Legal System; and Indigenous Knowledges. Photographs and poetry are also included. There are few books on Aboriginal women in Canada; this anthology provides a valuable addition to the literature and fills a critical gap in the fields of Native Studies, Cultural Studies and Women’s Studies. (from Inanna website)
