From the author: Durant les annees 1640, depuis le debut du conflit entre le roi et le parlement, la ville de Londres et ses environs etaient considerablement moins engages a la cause parlementaire que la plupart des comptes rendus de ce conflit suggerent. La bataille d'Edgehill (octobre 1642) avait ruine les espoirs que la guerre civile serait rapide et nette avec un nombre minime de victimes. A partir de decembre 1642, le mouvement pour la paix dans la metropole grandit regulierement en nombre de personnes et en influence. Les partisans du parti de la guerre travaillerent a reduire au minimum l'impact du mouvement de la paix en 1642-3, en lancant une campagne de soulevement general d'armement et de mobilisation generale de la population de Londres dans le but de vaincre les forces royalistes. La campagne a ete un echec total forcant le Parti de la guerre a recourir a la conscription d'hommes et de fonds de meme qu a faire une alliance militaire avec l'Ecosse. Ce sont ces dernieres mesures qui neutraliscrent le sentiment de paix grandissant dans la capitale, et mena a la victoire du parlement sur le roi.

From the author: Les historiens ont scrute de pres l 'impact de l 'image de l 'Empire romain sur la pensee imperiale de la Grande Bretagne, plus particulierement en tant que modele d'efficacite dans les domaines de la bureaucratie et du systeme juridique. Dans cct article, nous soutenons qu 'un second modele, complementaire, celui de l'ancienne Jerusalem, influenca egalement la facon dont les Britanniques percevalent leur mission et responsabilite imperiales. D 'un cote, la Rome antique fournissait un modele de gestion efficace d'un empire; Jerusalem, par contre, proposait la justification morale pour une initiative imperialiste elle-meme. Les Britanniques, comme les anciens Israelites, presumaient que leur importance parmi les nations decoulait d'un mandar divin et qu 'ils conserveraient ce statut tant et aussi longtemps qu'ils se conformeraient aux principes moraux tel que decretes par Dieu. L 'Empire britannique, de meme que les deux eites qui lui avaient servi de modeles, etait sense etre eternel au moyen d'un gouvernement efficace, et saint a cause de son sens moral

From the author: Quoique dernierement on se soit tourne d'avantage vers l'etude des petites villes de l'Angleterre, plus specialement du debut de l'epoque moderne, l'historiographie des travaux sur ce phenomene urbain demeure assez mince. On a fait quelques observations generales sur leur structure politique mais le processus de ces politiques n 'a pas ete analyse en detail. Ici, nous tentons de dissequer l'organisation politique de Loughborough avec ses implications pratiques, clarifiant l'interaction entre les elements urbains et ruraux.

From the author: This study of the interactions between market towns and their surrounding countryside is inspired by David Farmer's work on agricultural marketing. Central place theories of "spheres of influence" are applied to a number of small English towns for which there is evidence of commercial contacts in the period 1280-1520. A sample of towns is used, including a group of contiguous market centres in the west midlands. Trading hinterlands are defined and compared, showing that a half of places with which small towns traded lay within a radius of ten km. The shape of hinterlands was influenced by a number of geographical and economic factors. Analysis of debts and records of trade contacts allows us to define the urban hierarchy and the extent of competition between towns. A commercial chain is found linking London and the ports to provincial cities and then with the network of market towns, which in turn dealt with small-scale village traders. Even some small towns, which usually went in for little specialization, developed a distinctive product or commodity. Social and cultural factors also played a part in defining relations between town and country. The study of hinterlands and relations between towns gives general insights into the medieval economy.

Product Description

A small town in Saskatchewan suffers a tragedy when Joey Fallow, star of the high-school’s hockey team, is killed in a bus crash. Twenty-five years later, when the CBC comes to town to make a movie about the event, it becomes clear that many residents haven’t moved on and that many don’t want to. Mired in the past, and at the same time acutely frustrated by the stagnancy he sees around him, is Adam, Joey’s best friend. Adam has more recently suffered an accident himself, one that has left his memory faulty. In a struggle to master the chronology of his own life, and rise to the new challenges put in his way, he risks alienating just about everyone who frames his past and present, including his wife Ellen and many in their long-time circle of friends.

This is a very talented Author!
Well, I loved this book. Of course, my brother wrote it, so I am a tad biased. I really do think it is a great book, though.

I don't really know what to say about it, except that I honestly had trouble putting it down. It was fun for me to read, because I no longer live where it was set and miss home. So it was like a trip home for me.

I love his descriptions. They are not over done but really make you feel like you are there, seeing what the character describing it is seeing. I even found myself relating a lot to how the main character felt.

I most definitely think anyone who bought this book would enjoy it. People who are not from the Prairies of Canada may not relate to some of it, but they might relate to other parts of it.

Product Description
A ghost town is a town or city that has been completely abandoned by human inhabitants, usually because the economic activity that supported it has failed, or due to natural or human-caused disasters such as flood, government action, uncontrolled lawlessness or war. The term is sometimes used in a depreciative sense to include cities, towns, and neighborhoods which, while still populated, are significantly less so than in years past. Some ghost towns are tourist attractions, among them Tombstone, Arizona; Jerome, Arizona; Oatman, Arizona; Bannack, Montana; Kolmanskop and Elizabeth Bay, outside Lüderitz, Namibia. This is especially true of those that preserve interesting architecture. Visiting, writing about, and photographing ghost towns is a minor industry. Some ghost towns may be overgrown, difficult to access, and dangerous or illegal to visit. ... Read more

Classic Canadian Literature
This is one of the great works of Canadian fiction.It tells the story of a retiring doctor through the first-person perspectives of others.It is extremely well written, and the existentialist bent of the theme is insightful and provocative.It reads fast, and you'll wish there were more.This should certainly be part of any reading list for Canadian literature, and probably for fiction in general. Surely you should also read Ross's "As For Me and My House." ... Read more
