Don't forget Blue Rock Gallery in Diamond Valley, Alberta. Formerly called Black Diamond, it is a nice drive south of Calgary.

Both Blue Sky, Red Canoe and A Métis Man's Dream are on their shelves. Both add to the stock of little known western Canadiana history, exploration and experience.

I send you my best wishes for a Merry Christmas and happy holiday season! I hope you enjoy the writing and the stories. I hope they make it on to your Wish List!

Tap Town Books in Nanton is a lovely, well-stocked book store which has been open just over a year. It occupies the brick Nanton Drug Co. Circa 1908. So classy.

You can get both A Métis Man’s Dream and Blue Sky, Red Canoe there.

Say hi to Becky Scott!

A NEW DELIVERY!

Thanks to Kyle and staff at INDIGO SHERWOOD PARK.    

They have copies of both BLUE SKY, RED CANOE and A MÉTIS MAN'S DREAM; From Traplines to Tugboats in Canada's North.

Both books are easy reading, educational tales of western Canadiana told in a conversational, accessible fashion.

Enjoy yours!

​Great news for Strathcona County and Sherwood Park, (he said modestly).  Indigo Sherwood Park now has in stock both BLUE SKY, RED CANOE and A MÉTIS MAN'S DREAM!

If you have any trouble locating the book, please ask the staff, especially Kyle and Kena.

Coming  soon to central and southern Alberta, just in time for your last minute Christmas shopping!

Watch for brand new Blue Sky, Red Canoe by Neil Gower. This memoir weaves through history, stories and a multifaceted exploration over forty years of paddling the Red Deer River. It also explores the land, and the interface between Indigenous people and the incoming pioneer settlers.

Check the great shops near you!. Reach out to your favourite to reserve your copy now!

(Some of these fine people will have copies of best-selling A MÉTIS MAN'S DREAM; FROM TRAPLINES TO TUGBOATS IN CANADA'S NORTH in stock as well.)

For you in the St. Albert and Sturgeon County area, copies of my new book, Blue Sky, Red Canoe, are now available at THE BOOKSTORE ON PERRON STREET in DOWNTOWN ST. ALBERT!

This is fitting since the genesis of this memoir, history and exploration is on the Sturgeon River.

You can also get A MÉTIS MAN'S DREAM; FROM TRAPLINES TO TUGBOATS IN CANADA'S NORTH there for a good, old fashioned success story, in the face of adversity, and an update in your knowledge of things Metis in this country.

At this point, THE BOOKSTORE ON PERRON STREET is the only retailer in the area carrying my new book. Please support local and independent bookstores like this who go to the trouble of taking on projects like this.
