- Abstract
- The Camps" is a cross-Canada journey into the past, present and future. In the fall of 2015, the crew of Armistice Films embarked upon an historical journey. Armed with professional cinema cameras, four film professionals set out to document the remains of all of the internment camps used during Canada's First National Internment Operations from 1914 to 1920. At the internment sites, the crew interviewed a variety of individuals who have either a direct or indirect tie to the Internment Operations. They interviewed several internee descendants, including those of Ukrainian, German and Hungarian descent. They interviewed scholars, political leaders, activists, an RCMP officer, the Chief of Brandon Police Services, The Chief of The Batchewana First Nation, Museum Curators, a former Park Warden and Sculptor John Boxtel. In "The Camps", we hear three languages English, French (including 2 fully Francophone episodes) and Ukrainian, and see equal representation of both men and women. ... They address the individual camp and how each interview subject is connected to the history the audience is learning about, and why it is still relevant today."--Ukrainian Canadian Congress website.

- Abstract
- E.F. Norton lived a life of distinction in the declining years of the British Empire. Born into an accomplished, well-travelled family, he followed his heart and enlisted for a professional career as a soldier. A distinguished military career followed, punctuated with indulgences in his passion for exploration and mountaineering. The British Empire was starting to crumble, and Norton would be called upon more than once to rise to a variety of challenges.Norton’s gift for leadership was first demonstrated via his rapid progression through the ranks in the First World War, which paved the way for future leadership appointments, having earned the confidence and respect of those under his command. Events in the Second World War followed suit, when Norton was abruptly assigned the post of acting governor of Hong Kong, entrusted to save the civilian population from imminent Japanese invasion. The 1924 Everest expedition also exemplifies the pattern of having had leadership thrust upon him – in this case when General Charles Bruce was struck down by malaria on the approach march. Leading from the front, Norton set an altitude record for climbing on Everest without supplementary oxygen – a record only bettered in 1978 when Reinhold Messner and Peter Habeler made the first ascent of Everest without oxygen. Yet tragedy would follow Norton’s achievement, when George Mallory and Andrew Irvine disappeared high on the mountain. In Norton of Everest, Hugh Norton has written sensitively and knowledgably about his father’s remarkable life as mountaineer, soldier, naturalist, artist and family man. As on Everest, the real story is not only the death of the gallant, but also the heroics of the quiet survivors like E.F. Norton. (from publisher's website)

- Abstract
- The main purpose of this book is to furnish the University with a complete war record of the members of the Class. It is, therefore, primarily a statistical record and does not aspire to fill the place of an elaborate Class record such as the Class of 1904 deserves. The quinquennial record was the last book published by the Class and it has been a great disappointment to many of us that a complete record has not appeared since. Let us hope that our twentieth reunion will be productive of the information and enthusiasm as well as the inspired individual necessary for the compiling of such a volume. The Secretary desires to express his thanks to the members of the Class for their co-operation in responding to his requests for the information required for this book. The assistance of Bill Wrightson and his organization have made the completion of the work possible. Faithfully yours, W.A.B., Jr. (from introduction)
