"Rocky Mountain Madness" is a throwback to the heyday of Victorian ambition when Banff was a rustic-albeit bucolically charming- outpost of the Empire and the streets were people with climbers, outfitters, cowboys, cooks, guides, photographers and poets. This entertaining collection of historical photographs, amusing newspaper accounts, reminiscences and letters evokes the capricious antics the mountains summoned for these people and, to quote the authors, includes 'accounts of occasional accomplishment, accomplished adventure, adventurous rambling and rambling discourse.

No stranger to loss, he refuses to care again… After losing his wife and son in a car crash, Bryce “Cole” Coleman never planned on loving or having a family again. Every time a woman tries to get close to him, he pushes her away. After losing a friend in battle, he’s riddled with even more survivor’s guilt. He leaves the military and is still trying to find his way when Jake Cogburn offers him a job with the Brotherhood Protectors in Colorado. She cares too much about others and refuses to give less than her all… Though Staci Miller grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth, she chose the difficult path of becoming a doctor to help underserved people in the remote mountains of Colorado. When she fails to check in at home, her father hires Brotherhood Protectors to find his daughter. As his first assignment, Cole goes undercover to find the missing doctor, allowing himself to be captured by the same people holding her. When they escape, they traverse rugged terrain, evading mad mountain people while fighting a growing attraction for each other that could break down the walls around Cole’s heart.

After a bout with cancer Brent Lea was forced to reassess his priorities in life. One of his long-held visions was to spend an extended period of time in the Canadian Rockies, backpacking up valleys and over passes. To this end he took a three month leave of absence from his job, and accompanied by the ghost of Bill Peyto, lived out his dream. The ultimate in wilderness travel in western Canada. He immersed himself in the mountains, covering over 450 km in four national and two provincial parks, crossing 17 alpine passes and hiking past more than 65 backcountry lakes. Brent Lea's beautifully written account will appeal to anyone who has hiked in the mountains. Read about the time when Off to the right, in some willow shin-tangle, a bear stood watching us, unprovoked but getting more curious by the second. With the adrenaline coursing through my body, I couldn't decide whether I should grab the camera or grab the bear spray, so I did neither; I just let my senses take in the event. He observes that, Wandering around in the warm tangerine glow of the setting sun remains one of the most poignant memories of that summer. We felt so removed from the trappings of civilization; we were alone, there were no other hikers in this valley. The ancient fire-killed trees stood as silent sentinels against a darkening sky that was busy ushering in the first stars. He also relates the less appealing experiences of the backcountry when Satan's minions hovered above the camp, darkening the sky, or so it seemed, crawling over our packs and flying at our faces with voracious intensity.

In this, the companion to the landmark volume The Literary History of Alberta, Volume One: From Writing-on-Stone to World War Two, George Melnyk examines Alberta literature in the second half of the twentieth century. At last, Melnyk argues, Alberta writers have found their voice—and their accomplishments have been remarkable. The contradictory landscape, the stereotypes of the Indian, the Mountie, and the Cowboy, and the language of the Other, speaking from the margins—these elements all left their impressions on the consciousness of early Alberta. But writers in the last few decades have turned this inheritance to their advantage, to create compelling stories about this place and its people. Today, Melnyk discovers, Alberta writers can appreciate not only this achievement, but also its essential source: the symbolic communication of Writing-on-Stone. The Literary History of Alberta, Volume Two extends the study of Alberta's cultural history to the present day. It is a vital text for anyone interested in Alberta's vibrant literary culture.

Mapper of Mountains follows the career of Dominion Land Surveyor Morrison Parsons Bridgland, who provided the first detailed maps of many regions of the Canadian Rockies. Between 1902 and 1930, this unheralded alpinist perfected phototopographical techniques to compile a series of mountaintop photographs during summers of field work, and spent his winters collating them to provide the Canadian government, tourists, and mountain climbers with accurate topographical maps. Bridgland was a great climber and co-founder of the Alpine Club of Canada. Mapper of Mountains also tells the story of the Rocky Mountain Repeat Photography Project, which studies the changes sustained in the Rockies, repeating the field work accomplished by Bridgland almost a century ago.
