Calgarians!  There are new supplies of the deluxe, glossy, colourized and signed copies of A Metis Man's Dream at Shelf Life Books (1302 4 ST. SW ) and Owl's Nest Books (815a - 49 Ave SW)!

Cafe Books on Main Street in Canmore still has a couple of copies of A Metis Man's Dream left. It was so nice to stop in the other day and see them prominently displayed!

Alberta Views Magazine has very nicely noted A Metis Man's Dream as one of its New Alberta Books in the November, 2023 edition.

Owl's Nest Books Calgary Announcement

Read Now
 
I am really pleased to announce that Owl's Nest Books, located at 815a - 49 Ave SW, in Calgary now has a good supply of A Metis Man's Dream for sale!

These are the glossy, colour, deluxe and signed by the author version and would make (IMHO) a wonderful Christmas gift for those with an interest in the North, Metis history, marine transportation, and the oil and gas business. 

A Metis Man's Dream also provides background on questions about residential schools, Metis Scrip (land claims) and education, and the Town of Hay River which has recently been much in the news because of the northern wildfires.
