Synopsis

In "An Observer in the Near East," William Le Queux presents an incisive and vivid exploration of the socio-political landscapes of the early 20th-century Middle East. His narrative intertwines personal observations with broader cultural and historical contexts, skillfully employing a prose style that reflects both journalistic rigor and literary flair. Le Queux's astute depictions of the region's shifting dynamics, influenced by imperial interests and burgeoning nationalism, illuminate the complexities and contradictions of Near Eastern societies during a period of significant upheaval. William Le Queux, a British journalist and author renowned for his travel writings, was highly attuned to the socio-political currents of his time. His extensive travels throughout Europe and the Near East, coupled with his experiences in international espionage, uniquely positioned him to dissect the intricacies of the region. The insights gleaned from his experiences not only inform the authenticity of his observations but also reflect his preoccupation with the consequences of colonialism and national identity. "An Observer in the Near East" is highly recommended for readers interested in travel literature, historical political analysis, and the complexities of cultural interactions. Le Queux's penetrating observations resonate with contemporary issues, making this work a relevant and thought-provoking read for anyone seeking to understand the enduring legacy of colonial encounters in the region.

Windfall - Viola MacMillan and...

Tim Falconer

The fascinating, scandalous, and true story of Viola MacMillan and the Windfall mining scandal
		 
Viola MacMillan had it all: success, money, and respect. Influence, even. But in 1964, after three decades in the mining industry, one of the most fascinating women in Canadian business history was the central character in one of the country’s most famous stock scandals.
		 
MacMillan, who started out as a prospector in the ’30s, had developed lucrative mines and put together big deals. But she still wanted “a major discovery.” Early in July 1964, shares in Windfall Oil and Mines, a company she and her husband controlled, traded for around 56 cents. Then one day, the stock took off. In the absence of any information from the company about what it had found near Timmins on its claims, rumors and greed pushed the share price to a high of $5.70. MacMillan stayed quiet. Finally, after three weeks, Windfall admitted it had nothing.
		 
So many small investors lost money when the stock crashed that the Ontario government appointed a royal commission to examine what had happened, which led to changes at the Ontario Securities Commission and the Toronto Stock Exchange. Although MacMillan spent a few weeks in prison, she later received a pardon and the Order of Canada.
