Book
Softcover. Condition: Good. reprint. Product DescriptionIn 1803, a New England trading ship put in at the Nootkan village of the Eagle House on the Canadian Pacific coast. Its purposes were to replenish provisions, barter for valuable sea otter pelts and, incidentally, to obtain sexual services of the young village women.A group of rebellious Indian youths, infuriated by the arrogance and disdain of the white men, carried out a violent plan to massacre the crew and plunder the ship. Surviving the slaughter were Jewitt, the appealing and skilful ironsmith, and Thompson, the dour sailmaker. Eagle Song is the turbulent tale of their two-year captivity, seen through the eyes of Siam, a Nootkan nobleman.ReviewWith The White Dawn and Ghost Fox, James Houston came to us as an eloquent ambassador from the deep north, and now in Eagle Song he brings a beautifully fluent story of the collision of cultures along the Pacific Northwest frontier. This is a gallant book, a weave of history and life as seen from the sea-spearing canoes and awesome longhouses of an unforgettable coastal tribe.-Ivan Doigclassic storytelling in the best sense - a compelling adventure that grips the imagination, stirs the heart, and feeds the mindEagle Song soars and sings.-William StevensonAbout the AuthorJames Houston, a Canadian author-artist, served with the Toronto Scottish Regiment in World War II, 1940-45, then lived among the Inuit of the Canadian Arctic for twelve years as a Northern Service Officer, and the first Administrator of west Baffin Island, a territory of 65,000 square miles. Widely acknowledged as the prime force in the development of Inuit art, he is past chairman of both the American Indian Arts Centre and the Association on American Indian and Eskimo Cultural Foundation Award, the 1979 Inuit Kuavati Award of Merit, and the 1997 Royal Geographic Societys Massey Medal, and is an officer of the Order of Canada.Among his writings, The White Dawn has been published in thirty-one editions worldwide. That novel and Ghost Fox, Spirit Wrestler, and Eagle Song have been selections of major book clubs. Running West won the Canadian Authors Association Book of the Year Award, while his novel, The Ice Master, also appeared in Spanish translation. Author and illustrator of seventeen childrens books, he is the only person to have won the Canadian Library Association Book of the Year Award three times. His most recent childrens book is Fire and Ice, about creating glass sculpture. He has also written screenplays for feature films, has created numerous documentaries and continues to lecture widely.His drawings, paintings, and sculptures are internationally represented in many museums including the St. Petersburg Museum in Florida and private collections including that of the King of Saudi Arabia. He is Master Designer for Steuben Glass, with one hundred and ten pieces to his credit. He created the seventy-foot-high central sculpture in the Glenbow-Alberta Art Museum. In 1999 Canadas National Museum of Civilization devoted its show Iqqaipaa to the art of the Arctic in James Houstons time, and he played a central role in organizing the exhibition.He and his wife Alice divided their time between a colonial privateers house in New England and a writing retreat on the bank of a salmon river on the Queen Charlotte Islands in British Columbia, where he has written a large part of his trilogy of memoirs, Confessions of an Igloo Dweller, Zigzag, and Hideaway.James Houston passed away in 2005 at the age of 83.From the Hardcover edition.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. First Edition. Eddie Shore was the Babe Ruth and Ty Cobb of hockey, a brilliant player with an unmatched temper. Emerging from the Canadian prairie to become a member of the Boston Bruins in 1926, the man from Saskatchewan invaded every circuit in the NHL like a runaway locomotive on a downgrade. Hostile fans turned out in droves with a wish to see him killed, but in Boston he could do no wrong.During his twenty-year professional career, the controversial Shore personified "that old time hockey" like no other, playing the game with complete disregard for his own safety. Shore was one of the most penalized men in the NHL, and also a perennial member of its All Star Team. A dedicated athlete, Shore won the Hart Trophy for the leagues most valuable player four times - a record for a defenseman not since matched - and led Boston to two Stanley Cups in 1929 and 1939. In 1933, Shore was the instigator of hockeys most infamous event, the tragic "Ace Bailey Incident," and during his subsequent sixteen-game suspension the fans chanted, "We want Shore!" After retiring from the NHL in 1940, Shores passion for the game remained undiminished, and as owner and tyrant of the AHL Springfield Indians, he won championship after championship.This is an action-packed and full-throated celebration of the "mighty Eddie Shore" - and also of the sport of hockey as it was gloriously played in a bygone age.
