The content focuses on the dynamic roles officers play today, the equestrian branch of the RCMP, parades and escorts and the beloved horses that have long since been associated with the RCMP. Additionally, the book talks about the individuals who rode the horses, and specific events of significance such as the Musical Ride. The book aims to commemorate the history and effort of the RCMP, a group that has since become a national symbol in Canada.

- Abstract
- Pertains to a collection of post-war contemporary Canadian art work, focused between the years of 1945 and 1983. In addition to art work, the book contains a series of essays in attempts to further the reader’s pluralistic understanding of contemporary Canadian art. Rather than specific careers, the book seeks to identify the issues that Canadian contemporary art aims to address. Without constraints, the publication is edited to provide a cross-section of multiple artistic forms of expression, rather than confining oneself to a specific medium or genre.
