Beschreibung

In "Canada Under British Rule," John G. Bourinot presents a comprehensive exploration of Canada's political and social evolution from the time of British colonization through the mid-19th century. Bourinot, drawing upon his keen historical insight, employs a narrative style that interweaves meticulous details with critical analysis, capturing the complexities of colonial governance, Indigenous relations, and the burgeoning Canadian identity. His work is contextualized within the broader landscape of British imperial history, serving as a vital resource for understanding the foundations of Canadian nationalism and the intricate dynamics of colonial power. Bourinot, a key figure in Canadian historiography and an early advocate for responsible governance in Canada, was shaped by his upbringing in a colonial context that fostered his interest in the interplay between Britain and its territories. His experience as a journalist and historian endowed him with an acute awareness of the legislative and cultural undercurrents that influenced Canada's trajectory during this formative period. This deep-seated connection to his subject matter propelled him to document the nuances of Canada's colonial experience meticulously. I highly recommend "Canada Under British Rule" to scholars, students, and any reader intrigued by the complexities of colonial history. Bourinot's rigorous scholarship and engaging prose make this work both informative and captivating, offering essential insights into the roots of modern Canada and the ongoing implications of its colonial legacy.

    We can't just be done with religion, argues David Dark. The fact of religion is the fact of us. Religion is the witness of everything we're up to—for better or worse. 
     
     
     
    David Dark is one of today's most respected thinkers, public intellectuals, and cultural critics at the intersection of faith and culture. Since its original release, Dark's Life's Too Short to Pretend You're Not Religious has become essential reading for those engaged in the conversation on religion in contemporary American society. Now, Dark returns to his classic text and offers us a revised, expanded, and reframed edition that reflects a more expansive understanding, employs inclusive language, and tackles the most pressing issues of the day. 
     
     
     
    With the same keen powers of cultural observation, candor, and wit audiences have come to know and love, Dark weaves in current themes around the pandemic and vaccine responses, Black Lives Matter, the #MeToo and #ChurchToo movements, critical race theory, and more. By looking intentionally at our weird religious background (we all have one), he helps us acknowledge the content of our everyday existence—the good, the bad, and the glaringly inconsistent. When we make peace with the idea of being religious, we can more practically envision an undivided life.

    Known as "the feisty one," young Barbara will do whatever it takes to protect herself and her younger siblings from the predators in their lives. Her experiences are extraordinary, from countless nights sleeping under a claw foot tub to evade her abuser to witnessing the burning of an interracial couple. Though she was the self-appointed protector of her mother from various abusers, those lessons were not always applied as she pursued her own adult relationships. Yet even when she experienced defeat and despair, she learned she was never defeated. Not In The Fire is for anyone tempted to doubt their usefulness and ability to carry on. Journey with Barbara as she finds that God is not in the fiery events in her life, but in a gentle, silent voice. 
    About the Author:

She has held numerous positions in her local church, including organizing a monthly women's breakfast, and some of her career pursuits have included children's librarian, personal care attendant, orphanage custodian, nanny, and carhop. Her home has been the site of day care for the elderly, children's daycare, and a bed and breakfast.
