Softcover. Condition: Near Fine. Reprint. Extracted from "Adolphe Monod's Farewell", taken from The Banner of Truth edition, 1962 by permission. What makes this unique is that each of these addresses was given from the heart of a man lying upon his death-bed, and thus facing the very shadow of eternity. May the reading and re-re…ading of these five exhortations prove valuable to prepare each of us to face the day appointed for all men. This softcover booklet is a glossy tan, illustrated cover with black lettering. Side stapled. 27 pp. with advertisements from the back from the publisher. Four pages contain highlighting, else fine. Full refund if not satisfied.

Hardcover. First Edition, First Printing. pp. 189. 4to. Publisher's black boards, blind-stamped title to the front board. Richly illustrated with many black-and-white, and colour photographs, illustrations, facsimiles, et al. Bright, clean, and unmarked with tight, sound binding; near fine and housed in near fine dustjacket. App…ears unread; as new. Terra Nostra celebrates the mapping of Canada, in part by telling the stories of the exceptional individuals who helped to create the maps. Drawn from the rich cartographic holdings of Library and Archives Canada, it spans four centuries - from the portolan charts of the early explorers to recent aerial images of east coast ice floes. Canada's maps provide evidence of our nation's technical accomplishments and offer insight into the development of our geographical knowledge. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the official Atlas of Canada; Terra Nostra provides a beautifully illustrated and timely celebration of the country's cartographic history.
