Synopsis

In "On Canada's Frontier," Julian Ralph embarks on a compelling exploration of the Canadian wilderness at the turn of the 20th century. The narrative blends vivid, descriptive prose with keen observations of the rugged landscape and its inhabitants, illustrating the struggles and triumphs faced by settlers. Ralph's literary style is marked by a meticulous attention to detail, allowing readers to feel the pulse of frontier life and the interplay between man and nature. This work serves as a unique period piece, manifesting the broader themes of American expansionism while deeply exploring the socio-cultural dynamics of the Canadian frontier. Julian Ralph, an American journalist and travel writer, was drawn to the Canadian frontier through his passion for adventure and discovery. His prior experiences in journalism, along with a keen interest in the complexities of regional identity and the experiences of marginalized communities, led him to document this lesser-known yet significant aspect of North American history. Ralph's background equipped him with the perspective and narrative skill required to navigate the often harsh realities of frontier life in his writing. Ralph's "On Canada's Frontier" is a must-read for anyone interested in exploration literature, settler narratives, or the historical context of Canada's development. With its rich descriptions and engaging storytelling, the book invites readers to reflect on the transformative power of the frontier experience while shedding light on the resilience of those who lived it.

    A simple, human solution for loneliness and depressionWhen Dr. Dixon Chibanda lost a patient to suicide, he began a soul-searching journey that eventually led to a mental healthcare revolution. As one of only six psychiatrists in all of Zimbabwe, a country traumatized by decades of conflict, Chibanda quickly realized that millions there were suffering from mental illness with no hope of receiving care. He saw that the only way to narrow this care gap was to leverage existing resources in the community, and one such resource was the compassion and understanding of grandmothers. With fourteen of these wise elders as partners, Chibanda pioneered the Friendship Bench program, a community-driven initiative addressing loneliness, depression, substance abuse, and suicide by fostering intergenerational connectedness. Since then, more than 500,000 people worldwide have sat on a park bench to share their personal stories with an empathetic grandmother.
     
    A primer on how human connection forms the bedrock of our resilience, The Friendship Bench gives readers the tools to facilitate transformative healing by reaching out to those who are struggling and isolated from the world around them. It’s a case study of how interventions supported by robust scientific evidence can be made accessible for all. Ultimately, it’s a celebration of the collective wisdom and knowledge of those rooted in their communities and their profound ability to foster belonging, purpose, and healing.

    Award-winning Indigenous author Harold R. Johnson discusses the promise and potential of storytelling. 
    Approached by an ecumenical society representing many faiths, from Judeo-Christians to fellow members of First Nations, Harold R. Johnson agreed to host a group who wanted to hear him speak about the power of storytelling. This book is the outcome of that gathering. In The Power of Story, Johnson explains the role of storytelling in every aspect of human life, from personal identity to history and the social contracts that structure our societies, and illustrates how we can direct its potential to re-create and reform not only our own lives, but the life we share. Companionable, clear-eyed, and, above all, optimistic, Johnson’s message is both a dire warning and a direct invitation to each of us to imagine and create, together, the world we want to live in.
