Memories of Turtle Lake by Kevin W. Hope Pdf

Memories of Turtle Lake and the Story of Sunset View Beach tells the story of an idyllic community in Northwest Saskatchewan from its first wave of doomed homesteaders in the early 1900s through to its success as a residential lake community today. In particular, author Kevin Hope details the period from the 1950s onward when area newcomers realized years before the market did that their remote community had the potential to become prime recreational property. Recalling memories from his childhood and teen years, then with his wife and sons, through his experiences as a property owner and full-time resident at Sunset View Beach, Hope paints a vivid picture of the community and shares stories of the interesting people who have lived there. This cast of characters includes Gord, both wily and endearing, who somehow managed to kickstart the recreational era of the community using other people’s money; Bud, the cheerful, backwoods moonshiner; and members of the author’s own family, including his wife, Fay, who had a rather unique encounter with a badger in an outhouse at the lake. Part personal memoir, part historic record, and wholly entertaining, Memories of Turtle Lake has something for anyone with an interest in local history, a connection to the area, or who just enjoys good storytelling.

Surface Climates of Canada by Timothy R. Oke,W.G. Bailey,Wayne Rouse Pdf

In the opening chapters contributors lay out the large-scale context of the physical climate of Canada, introducing the processes, balances, and dynamic linkages between the surface and atmosphere that create and maintain the diversity of surface climates found in Canada as well as outlining the nature of the physical processes that operate near the ground's surface. Individual chapters are dedicated to snow and ice - the almost universal surface cover in Canada - and the other major natural surface environments of Canada: ocean and coastal zones, fresh water lakes, wetlands, arctic islands, low arctic and subarctic lands, forests, and alpine environments. The final part of the book considers those surface environments that have been strongly influenced by human activity, such as agricultural lands and urban environments, and examines the prospects for future climate change. Bringing together for the first time a wide range of scholarship by leading climatologists, The Surface Climates of Canada will be an indispensable tool for understanding Canada's surface climates and the processes responsible for their creation and control.
