- Abstract
- "Mary Scha¨ffer was a photographer, writer, and cartographer from Philadelphia, well known for her work in the Canadian Rockies at the turn of the twentieth century. Colleen Skidmore's engrossing study asks new questions, tells new stories, and introduces women and men with whom Scha¨ffer interacted and collaborated. It argues for new ways of thinking about the significance and impact of Scha¨ffer's work on historical and contemporary conceptions of women's experiences in histories and societies in which gender is fundamental to the distribution of power. Scholars and readers of women's photography and writing histories, as well as wilderness and mountain studies, will make new discoveries in Searching for Mary Scha¨ffer."-- Provided by publisher.

- Abstract
- "Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) (Heritage Conservation Studies, Architecture and Engineering Services) was requested by Claire Sieber (Cultural Resource Management Advisor for Parks Canada's Mount Revelstoke and Glacier Field Unit) to provide recording services of eastbound and westbound viewscapes in Glacier National Park, including Rogers Pass National Historic Site (RPNHS) in British Columbia. This request stems from an analysis made by the Mount Revelstoke and Glacier Field Unit in conjunction with Parks Canada's Indigenous Affairs and Cultural Heritage Directorate to identify the values of this cultural landscape and its character-defining elements and subsequently document them. This is a mitigation measure assocated with constriction on the Trans-Canada Highway (TCH)." - Project Description

- Abstract
- "Cabin Fever traces the tradition of the cabin in Canada and the United States--from the settlement of the frontier to the contemporary depictions feverishly circulated across the Internet--showing how this humble architectural form has been appropriated for its symbolic value and helped shape a larger cultural identity. The exhibition title is borrowed from the idiomatic expression for an anxious state of mind resulting from a prolonged stay in a remote or confined place. But it also plays upon the more consumer-driven definition of "fever:" a contagious, usually transient, fascination with an object of desire. Cabin Fever will offer a historical and cultural survey of the cabin in North America, an acknowledgement of the pervasive influence of this typology. Not only has the cabin survived in various forms and iterations, but it also has resonated deeply in our cultural psyche."-- Provided by publisher.
