Like cancer untreated, PTSD can kill—if not the body— the mind and soul. Linda King has portrayed, in real-time, what it is like to live with full-blown post-traumatic stress disorder. With My Face to the Wind is not only for those who have PTSD, or those who support friends and family with PTSD, but it is also for professionals who want a window into the mind and heart of someone struggling to overcome PTSD. With this 2021 revision, Linda hopes that readers who have lived with the symptoms of this disorder (which often goes undiagnosed) will learn coping skills, along with hope and faith to continue on their journey. Linda King’s “With My Face to the Wind” is an inspiring read like no other. Her story is one of the tragedies and triumphs, with tears and laughter guiding the way. Mrs. King knows how to tell her tales and pushes her readers to better themselves—by accepting themselves. I suggest this book to anyone—PTSD suffers, mis-understood teenagers, and those who are perfectly fine. This book will lead you to your best self. -Anna Katherine Beerman While sharing some of her personal tragedies, Linda King weaves just enough verifiable psychological content (without causing brain freeze) to know that she's done her homework. Her wit and humor shine through just in the nick of time. . . -Rhonda B. Holmes, Author, The WORD Diet What you have written is too powerful to be read in one or two settings. As a registered nurse I’ve been accustomed to reading professional abstracts and journals quickly and incorporating new learning into my nursing practice. It was the unanticipated emotional impact that caused me to read it in small “doses” spread over a couple of months. . . . and your format of introducing that information throughout the book as it coincided with stages in your own emotional journey, will make it much easier for individuals affected by PTSD to understand and apply it to their own circumstances. -Elen Wright, R.N

Celebrating our 20th classic back in print, the Western Canadian Classics series is designed to keep the best western Canadian history, biography, and other works available in attractive and affordable editions. These popular and bestselling books are selected for their quality, enduring appeal, and importance to an understanding of our past. From the author of the classic North to Cree Lake, Arthur Karras, Face the North Wind is the compelling true story of cousins Fred Darbyshire and Ed Theriau, who spent almost five decades, from 1924 to 1975, trapping and living off the land in northern Saskatchewan. Working an area roughly defined by Cree, Wollaston, and Reindeer Lakes, Fred and Ed evolved from innocent greenhorns to expert trappers at a time when modern conveniences were unheard of in that part of the country. Intertwined with the two men's experiences are gripping accounts of the annual Hudson's Bay Company fur brigades along the Churchill River, encounters with wolves, trappers' lore, and exciting tales of memorable fur, game, and fish catches.

An extraordinary memoir from an Iranian journalist in exile about leaving her country, challenging tradition and sparking an online movement against compulsory hijab. A photo on Masih's Facebook page: a woman standing proudly, face bare, hair blowing in the wind. Her crime: removing her veil, or hijab, which is compulsory for women in Iran. This is the self-portrait that sparked 'My Stealthy Freedom,' a social media campaign that went viral. But Masih is so much more than the arresting face that sparked a campaign inspiring women to find their voices. She's also a world-class journalist whose personal story, told in her unforgettably bold and spirited voice, is emotional and inspiring. She grew up in a traditional village where her mother, a tailor and respected figure in the community, was the exception to the rule in a culture where women reside in their husbands' shadows. As a teenager, Masih was arrested for political activism and was surprised to discover she was pregnant while in police custody. When she was released, she married quickly and followed her young husband to Tehran where she was later served divorce papers to the shame and embarrassment of her religiously conservative family. Masih spent nine years struggling to regain custody of her beloved only son and was forced into exile, leaving her homeland and her heritage. Following Donald Trump's notorious immigration ban, Masih found herself separated from her child, who lives abroad, once again. A testament to a spirit that remains unbroken, and an enlightening, intimate invitation into a world we don't know nearly enough about, The Wind in My Hair is the extraordinary memoir of a woman who overcame enormous adversity to fight for what she believes in, and to encourage others to do the same.

Hailed as a great Canadian classic on boyhood, Who Has Seen the Wind evokes the sheer immensity of the prairie landscape, from the relentless wind to the far reaches of the bright blue sky.

This is no simple, forgettable novel: Mitchell gives readers a memorable glimpse into the ins and outs of small-town life during the Depression years, always through Brian’s eyes, and in doing so creates a poignant and powerful portrait of childhood innocence and its loss.

A dramatic and thought-provoking novel of one family's triumph in the face of the hardships and challenges of the post-Civil War South. The Wake of the Wind, J. California Cooper's third novel, is her most penetrating look yet at the challenges that generations of African Americans have had to overcome in order to carve out a home for themselves and their families. Set in Texas in the waning years of the Civil War, the novel tells the dramatic story of a remarkable heroine, Lifee, and her husband, Mor. When Emancipation finally comes to Texas, Mor, Lifee, and the extended family they create from other slaves who are also looking for a home and a future, set out in search of a piece of land they can call their own. In the face of constant threats, they manage not only to survive but to succeed--their crops grow, their children thrive, they educate themselves and others. Lifee and Mor pass their intelligence, determination, and talents along to their children, the next generation to surge forward. At once tragic and triumphant, this is an epic story that captures with extraordinary authenticity the most important struggle of the last hundred years.
