I<\/strong>n this groundbreaking work of science, history, and archaeology,\u00a0 Mann radically alters our understanding of the Americas before the arrival of Columbus in 1492. \u00a0Challenging and surprising, this a transformative new look at a rich and fascinating world we only thought we knew.<\/p>\n

Collateral knowledge: legal reasoning in the global financial markets<\/a> \/ Annelise Riles.\u00a0<\/strong>Riles argues that financial governance is made not just through top-down laws and policies but also through the daily use of mundane legal techniques such as collateral by a variety of secondary agents, from legal technicians and retail investors to financiers and academics and even computerized trading programs.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Half interest in a silver dollar: the saga of Charles E. Conrad<\/a> \/ James E. Murphy.\u00a0<\/strong>The life of Charles E. Conrad and the history of Fort Benton, Montana Territory, are so intertwined that the story of one cannot be told independently of the other.<\/p>\n

Indian bishop of the west: the story of Vital Justin Grandin, 1829-1902<\/a> \/ by Frank J. Dolphin.\u00a0<\/strong>One of five Catholic missionaries serving in the Canandian northwest in 1854; the story of his life and achievements,<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0Madness, betrayal and the lash: the epic voyage of Captain George Vancouver<\/a> \/ Stephen R. Bown. <\/strong>Madness, Betrayal and the Lash<\/em>\u00a0is a long overdue re-evaluation of one of the greatest explorers of the Age of Discovery. It’s a gripping tale of adventure at sea, the struggle of empires, and one man’s battle against illness, the isolation of command, and a polarizing class system.<\/p>\n

Northern frontier, northern homeland: the report of the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry<\/a> \/ Thomas R. Berger.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>In March 1974, Justice Thomas Berger of the Supreme Court of British Columbia was commissioned by Pierre Trudeau\u2019s Liberal government to study the environmental, economic, and social effects of a pipeline through the Mackenzie Valley. The pipeline, proposed by Arctic Gas and Foothills Pipelines, would have run from American and Canadian oil fields along the Beaufort Sea \u201cto the lower 48.\u201d Berger\u2019s commission published its report in 1977. The inquiry and the final report are remarkable in Canadian history for any number of reasons: the attention to the north, the media coverage, the final recommendation (that the pipeline not\u00a0<\/em>be constructed until all land claims were settled, and with careful attention to environmental integrity), and the platform for aboriginal voices \u2013 especially Dene, Inuit, and M\u00e9tis.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0The heiress vs the establishment: Mrs Campbell’s campaign for legal justice<\/a> \/ Constance Backhouse and Nancy L. Backhouse.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>In 1922, Elizabeth Bethune Campbell, a Toronto-born socialite, unearthed what she initially thought was an unsigned copy of her mother’s will, designating her as the primary beneficiary of the estate. The discovery snowballed into a fourteen-year-battle with the Ontario legal establishment, as Mrs. Campbell attempted to prove that her uncle, had stolen funds from her mother’s estate. In 1930, she argued her case before the Law Lords of the Privy Council in London. A non-lawyer and Canadian, with no formal education or legal training, Campbell was the first woman to ever appear before them. She won. Reprinted here in its entirety, Campbell’s self-published account of her campaign, is an eloquent first-person view of intrigue and overlapping spheres of influence in the early-twentieth-century legal system. Constance and Nancy Backhouse provide extensive commentary and annotations to lluminate the context and pick up the narrative where Campbell’s book leaves off. Vibrantly written, this is an enthralling read.<\/p>\n
