WALKING THE AMAZON
STAFFORD, ED
In April 2008, Ed Stafford set off to become the first man ever to walk the entire length of the Amazon. He started
on the Pacific coast of Peru, crossed the Andes Mountain range to find the official source of the river. His journey
lead on through parts of Colombia and right across Brazil; all while outwitting dangerous animals, machete
wielding indigenous people as well as negotiating injuries, weather and his own fears and doubts. Yet, Stafford
was undeterred. On his grueling 860-day, 4,000-plus mile journey, Stafford witnessed the devastation of
deforestation firsthand, the pressure on tribes due to loss of habitats as well as nature in its true-raw form. Jawdropping
from start to finish, "Walking the Amazo""n" is as gripping as books by Bill Bryson, Jon Krakauer and
David Grann. "Walking the Amazon" is the unforgettable story of an unprecedented adventure.

WAS IT GOOD FOR YOU? AND OTHER RECENT CARTOONS BY AISLIN
MOSHER, TERRY
Was it good for you? It was really good for Aislin, nee Terry Mosher. Montreal’s infrastructure is crumbling at a
faster rate than any city in North America – and there lurks Aislin amongst the thousands of orange construction
cones, sketchbook in hand. Nationalism in Quebec would appear to be going through death throes while Aislin
watches, just as he has since the beginning, pencil at the ready. And bully Stephen Harper finally has his
majority, an event that Aislin will be caricaturing keenly, even after over forty years of watching Canadian Prime
Ministers come and go. And then there are those rare quiet days in Canada when Aislin has a world full of events
beyond our borders to draw upon. WAS IT GOOD FOR YOU? Is a collection of Aislin’s favourites drawn over the
last three years. It is his 45th book. He is aiming for fifty.
