The Bushman's Lair: On the Trail of the Fugitive of the Shuswap

Editura: HARBOUR PUB

Anul aparitiei: 2021

A captivating biography of a fugitive with intriguing connections to a top-secret US military program, the infamous Bre-X mining scandal and moreIn the summer of 2002, the discovery of a cave on Shuswap Lake in British Columbia by a group of houseboaters made headlines across the country. It had been the hideout of a fugitive known as the Bushman--real name John Bjornstrom--who had been arrested the previous winter after raiding cabins in the area for supplies. Shortly after the cave was discovered, and before it was imploded by local authorities, author Paul McKendrick was able to explore the nine-hundred-square-foot bachelor pad. Its elaborate construction left the impression that the occupant was more than just a common thief with a preference for uncommon living arrangements. Nearly two decades later, McKendrick set out to better understand what led the Bushman to the cave. The Bushman's Lair is the culmination of numerous interviews, reviews of RCMP and court transcripts, declassified us government files and McKendrick's own adventures in the Shuswap. The resulting book follows Bjornstrom's circuitous path: a child of Romani refugees raised by nature lovers from Norway; a ...

The Making of Budworm Farm

Editura: GOOSE RIVER PR

Anul aparitiei: 2020

After being mugged for the third time in twenty years, Andrea Suarez-Hill knew she could no longer live in New York City. She and her partner, Arthur Hill, read a three-line advertisement in Down East Magazine, "Last land on the coast of Maine for sale" and went to take a look. What they found was eleven acres of trees which had been logged twenty years before and blighted by an infestation of spruce budworm. But, the beauty of the Chandler River with an old farm on the opposite shore more than made up for the work that lay ahead. Two years later, they left their careers in New York to find a new way to live. They planned to call their new home "The Lough" due to its location on a bay at the mouth of the Chandler River. But, as they worked to clear the land, a friend who helped them, Jon Watts, said "you have a budworm farm" and the name stuck. Budworm Farm was born and stands today because of townspeople like Jon, Mark Alley, Al Caruso, Ginny Fieldman, the Snowdeal family and Mary & Eddie Stubbs. With the help and guidance of all these locals, the Hills began to create a farm to fit their vision. The poems and photos in The Making of Budworm Farm express the life they made ...
