The Lost Testimony of Louis Riel
Louis Riel was one of Canada's most misunderstood heroes. Vilified by the government and worshipped by the people who sought his help, Riel was a truly outstanding figure in Canadian history.

B14. Daylight's Burning
Growing up on the old Casorso Ranch near Kelowna in the 1940s was an adventure none will experience again. Jack Frost, in this, his first book, tells wonderful stories of the fun, the work and the heartbreak that accompany any coming of age.
Full of details of the era, Jack’s narrative style draws us into the spirit of the times and makes us keenly appreciative of the characters as real people.
From the buried stage coach to the fight with the fierce badger to the trials and tribulations of attending school to the loss of an old horse, the stories fill us with an insight into the life of a young boy.
