REBEL WITHOUT A PAUSE: THE NICK TERNETTE STORY
TERNETTE, NICK
Rebel Without A Pause is the autobiography of Winnipeg’s best-known and most persistent political
activist, Nick Ternette. For over forty years, Nick was one of the loudest voices of the Left, who ran for
mayor multiple times and never shied away from asking elected officials tough questions. A champion of
the rights of the poor and the disabled, sustainable ecology and public transit as well as a leader in
Winnipeg’s peace movement, Nick was a thorn in the side of conservative politicians and city official for
decades. Written before his death in March 2013, Rebel Without A Pause invites us into the personal life
and political memories of one of Winnipeg’s most cherished citizens.

RED GREEN'S BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO WOMEN
SMITH, STEVE
Red Green is celebrated as one of the handiest men in North America. But as well as being a purveyor of
inventive practical advice on, for example, making a jetpack from two propane tanks, a hybrid car from
recycled golf carts and satellite dishes, and a kiddie ride from a bar stool attached to the agitator of a
washing machine, Red Green is also noted for his insights into that most difficult of assembly jobs, human
relationships. Now Red Green -- a veteran husband (of Bernice), father, soul-searcher, philosopher and
observer -- has devoted an entire book to sharing with other battle-weary and confused males all he has
learned about the differences between the sexes.

REPORT FROM THE INTERIOR
AUSTER, PAUL
Having recalled his life through the story of his physical self in Winter Journal, internationally acclaimed
novelist Paul Auster now remembers the experience of his development from within, through the
encounters of his interior self with the outer world. From his baby's-eye view of the man in the moon to his
childhood worship of the movie cowboy Buster Crabbe to the composition of his first poem at the age of
nine to his dawning awareness of the injustices of American life; his heady days as a graduate student in
Paris, writing letters to the woman who would become his first wife, Report from the Interior charts
Auster's moral, political and intellectual journey as he inches his way toward adulthood through the postwar
fifties and into the turbulent 1960s.
