  “A Precarious Enterprise has all of the DNA necessary for future historians to fully understand the joyous and unexpected rodeo that was CanLit 1.0. It was a cherished window in time, and Scott tells of it with love and the ultimate insider’s POV.” — Douglas Coupland, author and artist
  		 
  Ever wondered how a publishing house works? Scott McIntyre tells all in this behind-the-scenes look at Canadian publishing
  		 
  Scott McIntyre has lived the story of Canadian book publishing. Beginning his career at McClelland & Stewart in 1967, he went on to cofound his own publishing house, Douglas & McIntyre, in 1970 and made his mark on the industry amid the country’s exhilarating literary coming-of-age.
  		 
  Becoming one of Canada’s largest and most respected publishing houses and among the first to embrace Indigenous issues, Douglas & McIntyre and its associated children’s publisher, Groundwood Books, published some 900 authors and 2,000 books in less than 50 years. For McIntyre, the authors always came first, and he worked closely with many important figures, including Doris Shadbolt, Wayson Choy, Richard Wagamese, Anna Porter, Will Ferguson, Douglas Coupland, Hugh Brody, Robert Bringhurst, Wade Davis, and Farley Mowat.
  		 
  Telling stories featuring a colorful array of characters who rebuilt the publishing world following WWII and anecdotes about how book publishing works, McIntyre touches upon the guiding philosophy and historic traditions still animating the industry today. More than the story of one publisher and his company, this is a first-person account of the buoyant period when writers, their books, and the companies who published them changed the nation.

  What Happened to Belén - The...

  ""There are many women like Belén whose names we don’t know, but whose stories are just as important. An uplifting chronicle of one woman’s fight for justice.""—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) 
  Foreword by Margaret Atwood 
  The heartbreaking true story of an Argentinian woman imprisoned for having a miscarriage—an injustice that galvanized a feminist movement and became a global rallying cry in the fight for reproductive rights. 
  In 2014, Belén, a twenty-five-year-old woman living in rural Argentina, went to the hospital for a stomachache—and soon found herself in prison. While at the hospital she had a miscarriage—without knowing she was pregnant. Because of the nation’s repressive laws surrounding abortion and reproductive rights, the doctors were forced to report her to the authorities. Despite her protestations, Belén was convicted and sentenced to two years for homicide. 
  Belén’s imprisonment is a glaring example of how women’s health care has become increasingly criminalized, putting the most vulnerable—BIPOC, rural, and low-income—women at greater risk of prosecution. Belén’s cause became the centerpiece of a movement to achieve greater protections for all women. After two failed attempts to clear her name, Belén met feminist lawyer Soledad Deza, who quickly rallied Amnesty International and ignited an international feminist movement around #niunamas—not one more—symbolized by thousands of demonstrators around the globe donning white masks, the same kind of mask Belén wore when leaving prison. The #niunamas movement was instrumental in pressuring Argentine president Alberto Fernández to decriminalize abortion in 2021.  
  In this gripping and personal account of the case and its impact on local law, Ana Correa, one of Argentina’s leading journalists and activists, makes clear that what happened to Belén could happen to any woman—and that we all have the power to raise our collective voices and demand change.

  I received a target indication from one of the rear team members and observed movement coming from the left of the area of engagement. I then saw them, two enemy fighters moving to a new position. I must have let rip about twenty rounds and not one of the rounds hit them. I had missed completely! 
   
  “You shit shot,” swearing at myself under my breath. My teeth were clenched and I was pissed off at my own incapability with a rifle, however, I realised I had a primarily role to play and that was as the Platoon JTAC. 
   
  Havoc-06 is the call sign of former Australian Combat Controller, Troy Knight. As a Royal Australian Air Force Airfield Defence Guard, Troy had not found the military adventure he sought; combat operations. His thirst for overseas deployment saw him privately contract his services in Iraq and South East Asia, but when he got whiff that the Australian Defence Force was raising a new defence capability, he couldn’t help but want to be part of it. 
   
  The new Defence capability, termed the ‘Special Tactics Project,’ would see Troy undertaking the gruelling Commando Selection course and passing, making him one of Australia’s first Combat Controllers attached to the Australian Army 2nd Commando Regiment. 
   
  As a member of the Special Forces unit, Troy’s lifelong dream of taking part in combat operations would come to fruition, but the reality of his dream would also play havoc on his life. 
   
  Havoc-06 is the untold story of the Australian Combat Controller, but it is also Troy’s personal story and one that will resonate with so many.

  This is small part of introduction of the book: Desmond Mpilo Tutu, a name synonymous with courage, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to justice, was a South African Anglican cleric who served as Archbishop of Cape Town from 1986 to 1996. Born into a segregated society under the oppressive regime of apartheid, Tutu emerged as a beacon of hope and a powerful voice for the oppressed. His unwavering belief in human dignity and his tireless efforts to dismantle the apartheid system earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984. 
  This biography delves into the remarkable life of Desmond Tutu, exploring his journey from humble beginnings to becoming a global icon of peace and reconciliation. It chronicles his early life, education, and conversion to Christianity, highlighting the pivotal moments that shaped his character and set the stage for his extraordinary contributions to society. 
  Tutu's life was a testament to the power of the human spirit to overcome adversity and bring about positive change. His legacy lives on, not only in South Africa's transition to democracy but also in the countless individuals and organizations around the world inspired by his unwavering commitment to justice, equality, and human rights. 
  Early Life and Education 
  Born on October 7, 1931, in Klerksdorp, a small town in South Africa's Transvaal Province, Desmond Tutu grew up amidst the harsh realities of apartheid. His family was of mixed ancestry, with Xhosa and Motswana heritage, and he experienced firsthand the discrimination and segregation that defined the lives of Black South Africans under apartheid. 
  Despite the challenges he faced, Tutu was a bright and inquisitive child. He excelled in his studies and was particularly drawn to literature and history. After completing his primary education, he attended St. Peter's College in Johannesburg, where he continued to excel academically and demonstrated a strong leadership potential.
