Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. All True Things is a critical history of the genesis and evolution of the University of Alberta and a splendid way to mark the University's centennial. Professor Emeritus of History and alumnus, Rod Macleod, relates the University's coming of age against the parallel history of the Province of Alberta's remarkable growth. All True Things-a variation on the University of Alberta's motto, Quaecumque Vera, or, "Whatsoever Things Are True"-uncovers times of triumph and trouble by examining key people, circumstances, and decisions of that first century. What emerges is an enduring narrative of an institutional will to thrive and become a vibrant centre of learning. As the University embarks on its second century, this definitive source of information and reflection on institutional history and governance will inspire future leaders and policy makers and delight the University of Alberta's many friends far and wide. Foreword by Hon. Jim Edwards PC. This critical institutional history marks the University of Albertas centennial.

Paperback. Condition: New. The North-West Mounted Police were cerated in 1873 specifically to ensure that Canadian administration and settlement of the newly acquired North-West Territories were carried out in a peaceful and orderly manner. They did so with a remarkable degree of success. Contacts between the white and Indian societies were peaceful, and crime and violence amond settlers remained under control at all times. becasue of their efficiency and popularity with the public, the Mounted Police were able to make the transition from policing the frontier to maintaining law and order in a settled and developed community. R.C. Macleod traces the evolution of the force and also investigates why it was so successful. He finds both structural and sociological reasons. The North-West Mounted Police had advantages not enjoyed by similar organizations elsewhere in the world. Its officers exercised extensive judicial powers; indeed, for its first decade or so of existence, the force carried out virtually all functions of government in the Territories. Sociologically, the elite nature of the force -- it attracted a consistently competent group of men and officers -- and public acceptance of the high social standing of its members freed them from the pressures of local opinion and power. Above all, the NWMP was not an ailen imposition, but a genuine expression of the society it served. Its members played so large a part in the creation of western Canadian society that by the time their original assignment was complete they were an important part of the way in which that society defined itself, and hence indispensable to it.

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Death has become one of the great conundrums of our times. Sometimes we want to know all about it; other times we want nothing to do with it. For many people the idea that death has anything to do with living is just too strange. Like a camera, this book provides snapshots on the journey through death and remembrance. It is a chance to explore what it might be like to approach death, and its poems will be a focus for those on the journey with someone they love. Poems can comfort, enlighten, challenge, or inspire; they can articulate feelings that are otherwise hard to express. They can ease the sense of loneliness that many people experience through death and bereavement, by giving insights from those who have travelled such journeys before. DJ. Minimal foxing to top edge of pages. 123 pages.
