Canada: Dragon Hill Publishing, 2006. Soft cover. Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to lower front inside corner; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Paul Cowan takes us on an insightful, often irreverent journey from the earliest days of exploration and fur trading through the centuries of Canadian history. Their numbers filled every province, and we remember famous and familiar names, such as Sandford Fleming, Hugh Allan, Alexander Keith, Robert Service and Alexander MacKenzie. The rogues and scallywags might be less well known, but their stories give great colour to our past. Even Sir John A. MacDonald, Canada's first prime minister and best-known Father of Confederation, faced scandal and turmoil during his tenure. Still, Scots brought you the RCMP, the telephone, and standard time. Sit back and pour yourself a nip of Scotch while he tells tales filled with bold and outrageous characters, the Scots who really did create Canada., Dragon Hill Publishing, 2006, 4, Wheaton, Illinois: Crossway, 2003. Paper. Fine/No Jacket. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. The pastor of College Church in Wheaton, Illinois (home of Wheaton College) calls for a return to moral absolutes on the part of the Church and evangelical Christians. He emphasized the need for the church to hold the moral high ground by removing itself from worldly complications. This is a fine paperback copy., Crossway, 2003, 5<
