Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Album, Vol. 1: Men of Canada, or Success by Example in Religion, Patriotism, Business, Law, Medicine, Education and Agriculture This work proposes to answer these questions brie y, but accurately, in sober prose, and in cold type, like any other condensed biography. But it does not end here by any means. It brings to its aid the poetry of the artist, with the skill of the engraver, thus transferring the very image of the man to the printed page, so that he may, as it were, speak for himself and answer all our queries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Canadian Album: Men of Canada Hon. Louis Franҫois Geo. Baby, D. C. L., and L. L. D., was born in Montreal, August 26th, 1832. His father, a notary and lieutenant-colonel in the Canadian Militia, was the son of the Hon. Franҫois Baby, adjutant-general of Lower Canada and a member of the Executive and Legislative councils respectively. After a brilliant course of studies, begun with the Sulpicians, and terminated at Joliette College, Judge Baby studied law with Hons. L. T. Drummond and T. J. J. Loranger. He was admitted to the Bar in 1857, and entered into partnership with the former. Having to retire to the country, on account of ill health, he selected Joliette, Que., where he soon found himself at the head of a large clientelle. For many years, he took part in the municipal affairs, and occupied the position of mayor. In 1872, he ran for the House of Commons, but was defeated by a small majority. The following General Elections, he was elected by acclamation, and held the seat for Joliette until October 1880, when he was elevated to the Bench. His commission was that of a Judge of the Superior Court, but subsequently of the Court of Appeals, in which he still presides. He was Minister of Inland Revenue from 1878-80. Judge Baby has devoted much time to the study of Canadian Archeology and Numismatics, and as such is widely known. For years, he has been president of the Montreal Numismatic and Antiquarian Society, and vice-president of the Historical Society. He was married, July 22nd, 1873, to Helene Adelaide, daughter of Dr. Barthelet, a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre. In 1888, he was charged with a most important mission to the Holy See, respecting the distribution of the monies granted for the Jesuits' estates, and his services where recognized by His Holiness, conferring upon him the decoration of Knight Grand Cross of the Order of St. Gregory the Great. Among the eminent men of Canada, Judge Baby occupies a most enviable position. In 1874, he was created Q.C.

Book excerpt: Lawren Stewart Harris’ artistic career began in the first decade of our century. Well known for the nationalist-inspired landscapes that he painted between 1908 and 1932, Harris turned resolutely in 1934 to the painting of abstractions. He continued to create works that reflected his own modernist and mystical developments until the end of his life. Canadians praise Harris’ landscapes and admire him as a planner of innovative and heroic-sounding sketching trips into the North. He is also recognized as the chief organizer of the Group of Seven. A long list of younger artists he considered creative greatly benefited from Harris’ encouragement and often generous, practical help; many of them have been interviewed for this book. In the lives of some Canadians harris still functions as a gurulike guide – a role he was quite content to take on during his own lifetime – because of the spiritual content of his art and aesthetic writings and the example of his optimistic, vigorous and apparently untroubled life. But Harris’ was not an untroubled life, and Light for a Cold Land examines his personal crises and difficulties, some of which caused important changes in his art. The book also uncovers the painting styles, artistic tensions and cultural dynamics of the German milieu in which Harris received his only formal art education. His student years in Berlin profoundly influenced not only his art but also his artistic politics and his philosophy. It is ironic that in the art of this most articulate of Canadian nationalist painters, there are extensive German influences. Light for a Cold Land is the first art-historical study of Lawren Harris that attempts to explore his life and all aspects of his career. It is based on extensive work in archives, libraries, public art galleries and private collections in Canada, as well as research in Germany and interviews with members of Harris’ family and many of his friends, acquaintances, colleagues and critics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A tour de force of storytelling.” —Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Chief Inspector Gamache series “Jobb’s excellent storytelling makes the book a pleasure to read.” —The New York Times Book Review ”When a doctor does go wrong he is the first of criminals,” Sherlock Holmes observed during one of his most baffling investigations. “He has nerve and he has knowledge.” In the span of fifteen years, Dr. Thomas Neill Cream murdered as many as ten people in the United States, Britain, and Canada, a death toll with almost no precedent. Poison was his weapon of choice. Largely forgotten today, this villain was as brazen as the notorious Jack the Ripper. Structured around the doctor’s London murder trial in 1892, when he was finally brought to justice, The Case of the Murderous Dr. Cream exposes the blind trust given to medical practitioners, as well as the flawed detection methods, bungled investigations, corrupt officials, and stifling morality of Victorian society that allowed Dr. Cream to prey on vulnerable and desperate women, many of whom had turned to him for medical help. Dean Jobb transports readers to the late nineteenth century as Scotland Yard traces Dr. Cream’s life through Canada and Chicago and finally to London, where new investigative tools called forensics were just coming into use, even as most police departments still scoffed at using science to solve crimes. But then, most investigators could hardly imagine that serial killers existed—the term was unknown. As the Chicago Tribune wrote, Dr. Cream’s crimes marked the emergence of a new breed of killer: one who operated without motive or remorse, who “murdered simply for the sake of murder.” For fans of Erik Larson’s The Devil in the White City, all things Sherlock Holmes, or the podcast My Favorite Murder, The Case of the Murderous Dr. Cream is an unforgettable true crime story from a master of the genre.
