Описание:

Social unrest, political activism, worry about human impact on this earth--sound familiar? In 1969, British Columbians were facing concerns that are still making headlines today. At the end of a decade of changing technological and political landscapes associated with draft dodgers, hippie flower power and the rise of the counterculture, a group of serious-minded citizens created Sierra Club BC to protect and preserve wild places in the province.

From that moment, Sierra Club BC played an important role in many of the environmental issues in the province, from the protection of the Nitinat Triangle and the West Coast Trail in 1972; to the 1993 War in the Woods, the largest act of civil disobedience in Canadian history; to a twenty-year campaign that culminated in protection of the Great Bear Rainforest; to the ongoing opposition to the Site C Dam and the Trans Mountain pipeline. In fifty years, the club has helped to convince governments on both sides of the political spectrum to protect 15 per cent of BCs land base and just over 3 percent of BCs marine areas from development. Still active today, Sierra Club BC has thousands of members, volunteers and supporters, all working to protect the provinces wild areas and confront climate change.

Diane Pinchs non-fiction homage to Sierra Club BC provides an overview of the lasting impact the group has had, not only in BC, but in all of Canada. Replete with first-hand accounts, maps and photos, the book is a heartfelt in-depth look at environmentalism in Western Canada through the years, from the perspective of one of the most influential groups in operation. Sierra Club BCs philosophy of passion and persistence and commitment to science-based evidence and peaceful activism have given the club its incredible staying power.

Описание: The Pinch is a neighborhood pub in Columbia Heights, Washington, D.C. Known mostly as a punk band venue, a sports bar, and as a purveyor of fine duck bacon and deep fried pickles, the Pinch is also host to the Adams Morgan Writers Group. The stories contained herein range from literary fiction, to poetry, to gritty tomes best read late at night with a bourbon chaser. Inside you will find everything from beautiful cardinals in the snow, to gargantuan tomatoes, to murderous supervillians. Indeed, the only thread holding the collection together is that each story was written by a patron of the Pinch. Join us for an entr e of the finest literature ever penned in a dive bar, artfully paired with a side of the truly bizarre.

Описание: Lady Phoebe Renshaw and her lady's maid, Eva Huntford, encounter an uncharitable killer at a charity luncheon sponsored by a posh school for girls . . .

Good deeds build good character, and good character is what the Haverleigh School for Young Ladies is all about. Lady Phoebe--with the tireless assistance of Eva--has organized a luncheon to benefit wounded veterans of the Great War, encouraging the students to participate in the cooking and the baking. But too many cooks add up to a recipe for disaster when the school's headmistress, Miss Finch, is fatally poisoned.

The girls at Haverleigh all come from highly respected English families, none of whom will countenance their darling daughters being harassed like common criminals by the local police. So Lady Phoebe steps in to handle the wealthy young debutantes with tact and discretion, while Eva cozies up to the staff. No one is above suspicion, not even members of the school's governing body, some of whom objected to Miss Finch's "modern" methods. But Lady Phoebe and Eva will have to sleuth with great stealth--or an elusive killer may try to teach someone else a lethal lesson . . .

"Colorful information on the postwar period is combined with plenty of suspects, all neatly wrapped up in the style of a classic mystery."
--Kirkus Reviews
