Beyond the Page

Alberta's oil sands may be a multi-billion dollar resource for Canada but the havoc it's wreaking both environmentally and socially cannot be worth its revenue. In the much-anticipated book Tar Sands by renowned environmental journalist Andrew Nikiforuk, we learn of the irreparable damage these open-pit mines are causing and the anarchic societies that are popping up around them. In this pre-publication excerpt, Nikiforuk calls us to action to stop this pillaging of our precious eco-systems and the broader environmental degradation. And here, learn the myths and the truths about this scar on our country.

Author Spotlight

He's been called the best essayist of his generation by none other than John Updike. And from the current generation of non-fiction writers "blunt, spontaneous, dreamy, worldly, randy, adoring, unflinching." Edward Hoagland earned his chops writing for the New Yorker, Atlantic Monthly, Harper's and the New York Times Book Review, but his long-form Notes from the Century Before truly showed his craftsmanship. Now, for the first time, his journals that led to the writing of Notes have been published. Early in the Season recounts his journeys through British Columbia discovering the remarkable people and stunning nature that epitomize it. A classic and straight-ahead writer, this is Ted Hoagland.
