Empire of the Beetle How Human Folly and a Tiny Bug Are Killing North America’s Great Forests andrew nikiforuk

The bestselling author of Tar Sands investigates the human-engineered devastation of the beetle-ravaged forest

A ndre w nik if oruk “A terrific book on A terrif ying subject.” John Vaillant author of The Tiger

“Empire of the Beetle is a chilling, fascinating and important contribution to our understanding of a rapidly changing world.”  john vaillant, author of The Tiger Beginning in the late 1980s, a series of bark beetle outbreaks unsettled iconic forests and communities across western North America. An insect the size of a rice kernel eventually killed more than 30 billion pine and spruce trees from Alaska to New Mexico.

Killing North America’s Great Forests

The beetle didn’t act alone. Misguided science, out-of-control logging,

scientists, hungry animals, and altered watersheds. Although climate change triggered this complex event, human arrogance assuredly played a role. And despite the billions of public dollars spent on control efforts, the beetles burn away like a fire that can’t be put out. Author Andrew Nikiforuk draws on first-hand accounts from entomologists, botanists, foresters, and rural residents to investigate this unprecedented beetle plague, its startling implications, and the lessons it holds. Written in an accessible way, Empire of the Beetle is the only book on the bark beetle epidemic that is devastating the North American West. andrew nikiforuk is an award-winning Canadian journalist who has written about education, economics, and the environment for the past two decades. His books include Pandemonium, Saboteurs: Wiebo Ludwig’s War against Oil, which won the Governor General’s Literary Award for NonFiction, and The Fourth Horseman: A Short History of Plagues, Scourges and Emerging Viruses. His book Tar Sands won the Rachel Carson Environment Book Award and became a national bestseller. He lives in Calgary, Alberta.

Eating Dirt Deep Forests, Big Timber, and Life with the Tree-Planting Tribe charlotte gill

A treeplanter’s vivid story of a unique subculture and the magical life of the forest Charlotte Gill spent twenty years working as a tree planter in the forests of Canada. During her million-tree career, she encountered hundreds of clearcuts, each one a collision site between human civilization and the natural world, a complicated landscape presenting geographic evidence of our appetites. Charged with sowing the new forest in these clear-cuts, tree planters are a tribe caught between the stumps and the virgin timber, between envi-

ronmentalists and loggers. In Eating Dirt, Gill offers up a slice of tree-planting life in all of its soggy, gritty exuberance, while questioning the ability of conifer plantations to replace original forests that evolved over millennia into complex ecosystems. She looks at logging’s environmental impact and its boom-and-bust history, and touches on the versatility of wood, from which we have devised countless creations as diverse as textiles and airplane parts. Eating Dirt also eloquently evokes the wonder of trees, which grow from

Walk Like a Man Coming of Age with the Music of Bruce Springsteen robert j. wiersema

A frank, funny, and inventive blend of biography, music criticism, and memoir told in thirteen tracks

A frank and inventive blend of biography, music criticism, and memoir

As he enters his sixties, Bruce Springsteen remains a paragon of all that is cool in the world of rock. He’s a genuine voice of the people, the bastard child of Woody Guthrie and James Brown, and an elder statesman who has inspired generations of bands. He’s won twenty Grammy Awards, an Oscar, and two Golden Globes and is a double hall-of-famer. There are dozens of books about the Boss. What’s left to say? Nothing objective, perhaps. But when it comes to music, objectivity is highly overrated. Robert Wiersema has been a Springsteen fan since he was a teenager, following tours to see multiple shows in a row, watching set lists develop in real time via the Internet, ordering bootlegs from shady vendors in Italy. His attachment is deeper than fandom, though: he’s grown up with Springsteen’s music as the soundtrack to his life, beginning with his youth in rural British Columbia and continuing on through dreams of escape, falling in love, and becoming a father. Walk Like a Man is the liner notes for a mix tape, a blend of biography,

Nations, the British Columbia government has opened the Sacred Headwaters to industrial development. Imperial Metals proposes an open-pit copper and gold mine, called the Red Chris mine, and Royal Dutch Shell wants to extract coal bed methane gas across a tenure of close to a million acres. In The Sacred Headwaters, a collection of photographs by Carr Clifton and members of the International League of Conservation Photographers— including Claudio Contreras, Paul Colangelo, and Wade Davis—portray the splendour of the region. These photographs are supplemented by images from other professionals who have worked here, including Sarah Leen of the National Geographic. The compelling text by Wade Davis, which describes the region’s beauty, the threats to it, and the response of native groups and other inhabitants, is complemented by the voices of the Tahltan elders. The inescapable message is that no amount of methane gas can compensate for the sacrifice of a place that could be the Sacred Headwaters of all Canadians and indeed of all peoples of the world. wade davis is explorer-in-residence at the National Geographic Society

history of the east coast of North America The North Atlantic coast of North America—commonly known as the Atlantic Coast—extends from Newfoundland and Labrador through the Maritime Provinces and the Northeastern United States south to Cape Hatteras. This North Atlantic region belongs to the sea. The maritime influence on climate, flora, and fauna is dominant—even far inland. This is where the great northern boreal forests intermingle with the mixed coniferous-hardwood forests farther south and where the cold, icebergstudded Labrador Current from the Arctic and the warm Gulf Stream of the tropics vie for supremacy. Filled with stunning photographs, the book includes chapters on the geological origins of this region, the two major forest realms, and the main freshwater and marine ecosystems and also describes the flora and fauna within each of these habitats. Finally, it looks at what has been lost but also what remains of the natural heritage of the region and how that might be conserved in future. Written by the Atlantic region’s best-known nature writer, The Atlantic Coast draws upon the most up-to-date science on the ecology of the region as

Yukon A Wilder Place Photography by f r i t z m u e l l e r · Text by t e r e s a e a r l e

A celebration of the Yukon, one of the world’s last wild hot spots In this remarkable collection of photographs, Fritz Mueller captures fleeting, compelling moments in a timeless Yukon landscape, one of the world’s wildest and most overlooked wilderness areas. The view through Mueller’s lens is influenced by his scientific roots and inspired by his visual artist’s aesthetic. Although the beauty of this raw landscape is a central theme, his images also tell the story of a magnificent, complex natural system. Mueller takes us on the annual migration of the Porcupine caribou herd, and he captures intimate portraits of icy grizzly bears gorging on salmon at the Arctic Circle. His appreciation for nature’s

We learn about the Yukon’s vulnerability, as shown in photographs of fragile tundra ecosystems, a rare orchid photographed in a top-secret location, and an icefield bathed in the pink glow of desert dust carried from halfway around the globe.

Cow A Bovine Biography f l o r i a n w e r n e r · Translated by d o r i s e c k e r · Introduction by t e m p l e g r a n d i n

A fascinating look at the ubiquitous cow She’s every where: as a vehicle for both farmers and advertisers, as a subject for scientists and poets, or simply as a tasty sandwich-filler. Yet after more than ten thousand years living alongside us, the female of the bovine species remains a beguiling mystery. Combining entertaining anecdotes and illuminating discoveries, Florian Werner presents the curious cultural history of that most intriguing of animals: the cow. Since evolving from the aurochs, an ungulate that grazed the Persian grasslands, the cow has embedded herself into virtually all aspects of our lives. Rigorously researched, Cow is the first book to look at the animal in its countless manifestations in cultures around the world. Werner examines cows’ role in commerce and their place on our plates and in our stomachs. He looks at how cows are worshipped in some circles, such as in Hindu mythology, and abhorred in others, today being vilified as an agent of climate change. And A Bovine BiogrAphy

he waxes philosophic about the cow’s rumination and cud chewing, as well as her simple but meaningful moo. In a light, approachable style, Werner offers readers an eye-opening perspective on this commodified animal, whose existence is inextricably intertwined with ours and which we too often take for granted.

An electrifying collection of rarely seen hockey images highlighting the greatest heroes of the Original Six era

foreword by jean béliveau

The hockey stars of the fifties and sixties—Rocket Richard, Gordie Howe, Dave Keon, Bobby Hull, Jean Béliveau, Terry Sawchuk, Tim Horton, and others—were some of the most passionate players in National Hockey League history. These skilful and often colourful athletes played exhilarating hockey and were national heroes in a time when only six teams and 120 players battled for the Stanley Cup. Hockey’s Original 6 celebrates the most dynamic players and exciting moments of the era in more than 100 photographs from the legendary Harold Barkley Archives, including a number of never—or rarely—seen images. From 1942 until the early seventies, Barkley was the Toronto Star’s leading sports photographer, pioneering the use of electronic flash to capture stop-action hockey. This book is the most complete collection of pre-expansion-era colour action hockey photographs available in print.

BREAKFAST AT THE

EXIT

globe and mail What begins as a road trip through America soon becomes a journey of discovery into themselves and into the heart of the next-door neighbour they thought they knew. For Wayne Grady, the thrill of landscape and history is tempered by memories of racism and his own family roots. Merilyn Simonds, her ear tuned for the offbeat, finds curious echoes of the ex-pat promised land she grew up with. Together they travel against the tide of American history, following in the literary tire tracks of John Steinbeck, William Least Heat Moon, and Francis Trollope. Part travelogue, part exploration, part mid-winter love story told with wit and acuity by one of Canada’s most engaging literary couples, this is a journey into the reality behind the cultural myth that is America.

“If one is to travel well, one wants good travel companions. Travellers who arrive with their eyes and hearts open, acute observers with the skill to separate the steak from the sizzle.

Standing Tall My Journey s p e n c e r w e s t · Foreword by c r a i g & m a r c k i e l b u r g e r

A young man’s inspirational coming-of-age story of working hard, me to we

laughing a lot, and always standing tall Spencer West is many things. Accomplished speaker. University graduate. Natural prankster. Former cheerleader. And a young man without legs—something that has never held him back. Spencer was born without the use of his legs. When he was five, doctors decided to amputate below his pelvis to better help him get around. It didn’t bother him; he was Superman and nothing would ever get in his way. Or so he thought. Navigating through life on his hands, Spencer has always lived with purpose. But he wanted more out of life than just a paycheque and material possessions. He wanted to make an impact but wasn’t always sure how. That was until he had the epiphany: He was different for a reason. Infused with humour and humility, Spencer has never lost the hope or courage he needed to tackle personal obstacles—bullying, isolation, failure, or pride. His secret? Always standing tall. spencer west is an inspirational and charismatic speaker for the social enterprise Me to We. In 2008, he travelled to Kenya to help build a school in the Maasai Mara, where he met young people who strive to overcome challenges every day. This experience helped him recognize his true calling— to motivate and inspire people around the world. Since he began speaking, Spencer has reached over 1.8 million people, including students, educators, faith-based groups, and families with his encouraging words. West has shared the stage with such influential people as His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Mia Farrow, Reverend Jesse Jackson, Dr. Jane Goodall, Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel, and his musical idol Jason Mraz. Before joining Me to We Speakers, Spencer was on the Go Global speaking tour with Free The Children.

A deeply personal narrative and wide-ranging exploration of hunting—why many hunters feel most fully alive when they are hunting, how sport hunters differ from subsistence hunters, what connects aboriginal hunters to non-aboriginal hunters, and why so many hunters, including David Carpenter, inevitably give up the hunt for good.

W

hy do many hunters feel most fully alive when they are hunting? How is the sport hunter different from the hunter who must kill game to survive? And do women who hunt differ from their male counterparts? These are a few of the questions that David Carpenter ponders as he describes what hunting has meant to him and to others in the past and today. The story of hunting in Carpenter’s own life forms the heart of the book. When he was a boy, Carpenter and his father and brother would head out along the side roads and into the sloughs of their Prairie home searching for duck, grouse, and partridge. Later, hunting became a way to ward off depression. In the end, as a result of a dramatic experience after shooting a grouse, Carpenter gave up hunting for good. Winding through this deeply personal and engaging narrative is Carpenter’s exploration of the history of hunting, subsistence hunting versus hunting for sport, the indifference of some hunters to the plight of wildlife, and the meaning of the hunt for those who have written about it most eloquently. Along the way, Carpenter beautifully evokes the sensual pleasure of holding a gun, the intense relationship between the animals and their pursuers, and perhaps most of all, the transcendent joy of hunting. Finally, he poignantly conveys how for him animals have been transformed from objects of hunting into objects of wonder.
