When journalist Brett Popplewell first heard about Dag Aabye, an aging former stuntman who lived alone inside a school bus on a mountain, running day and night through blizzards and heat waves, he was intrigued and bewildered. Captivated by the seemingly implausible tale of a wild super-athlete aging more slowly than the rest of us, he was determined to meet the apocryphal white-haired man who was pushing the boundaries of the human mind and body beyond what anyone could dream was possible. What Popplewell witnessed on a secluded mountain perch led him on a six-year odyssey to uncover the true story of the 81-year-old man. Outsider takes readers on a remarkable journey from Nazi-occupied Norway to Argentina and British Columbia. The book chronicles how a child born under mysterious circumstances during World War II finds his way onto the big screen in Goldfinger, is heralded as the world's first extreme skier, and is later driven into the wilderness. Both joyful and tragic, Outsider presents a bold challenge to our notions of aging, belonging and human accomplishment.

What an owl knows : the new science of the world's most enigmatic birds

For centuries, owls have captivated and intrigued us. Our fascination with these mysterious birds was first documented over 30,000 years ago, in the Chauvet cave paintings in southern France, and our enduring awareness and curiosity of their forward gaze and nearly silent flight has cemented the owl as a symbol of wisdom and knowledge, foresight and intuition. But what, really, does an owl know? Though our infatuation goes back centuries, scientists have only recently begun to study these birds in great detail. While more than 270 species exist today, and reside on every continent except Antarctica, owls are far more difficult to find and study than other birds -- because while not only cryptic and perfectly camouflaged, owls are most active in the dark of night.

Killing the Wittigo : Indigenous culture-based approaches to waking up, taking action, and doing the work of healing : a book for young adults

"An unflinching reimagining of Legacy: Trauma, Story, and Indigenous Healing for young adults. Written specifically for young adults, reluctant readers, and literacy learners, Killing the Wittigo explains the traumatic effects of colonization on Indigenous people and communities and how trauma alters an individual's brain, body, and behavior. It explores how learned patterns of behavior -- the ways people adapt to trauma to survive -- are passed down within family systems, thereby affecting the functioning of entire communities. The book foregrounds Indigenous resilience through song lyrics and as-told-to stories by young people who have started their own journeys of decolonization, healing, and change. It also details the transformative work being done in urban and on-reserve communities through community-led projects and Indigenous-run institutions and community agencies. These stories offer concrete examples of the ways in which Indigenous peoples and communities are capable of healing in small and big ways -- and they challenge readers to consider what the dominant society must do to create systemic change. Full of bold graphics and illustration, Killing the Wittigo is a much-needed resource for Indigenous kids and the people who love them and work with them."-- Provided by publisher.

Wildlife of the North : animals of the high latitudes of North America and Europe

Hälle Flygare's interest in photography and wildlife began as a young man in Sweden. After his military service, he emigrated to Canada and pursued a forestry career and worked for Parks Canada. This book reflects his lifelong interest in photography and wildlife. For this book he obtained additional pictures from the very best wildlife photographers to showcase the greatest wilderness on earth. Dr. Valerius Geist, Dr. Geoffrey Holroyd and Dr. Wayne Lynch, three outstanding scientists in their fields, wrote the text. Thanks to the expertise and diversity of its authors, this book is equally rich in images and fresh facts. Wildlife of the North shows a full range of creatures that inhabit the land, sea and sky: Polar and Alaska Brown bears, big wild sheep, caribou, cougars, wolves and walruses; whales, orcas, narwhals and beluga whales; golden and bald eagles. Here too are Arctic foxes, hares, otters and geese, loons and ptarmigans. While this book is celebration of arctic and subarctic wildlife it is also a reminder of the great peril awaiting us if climate change continues unchecked. Some species may face extinction in the foreseeable future. By enhancing our appreciation for surviving arctic wildlife and wildlands, these authors gently remind us of how much more our lives might have been enriched, had not so many fantastic and fascinating creatures not already been driven to extinction. Just as we will never have an opportunity to know those bygone creatures, our own descendants may never know the spectacular animals which we still take for granted unless we act now to protect the greatest wilderness on earth.
