Outsider : An Old Man, A Mountain and the Search for a Hidden Past

Popplewell, Brett, 1983-


When journalist Brett Popplewell first heard about Dag Aabye, an aging former stuntman who lived alone inside a school bus on a mountain, running day and night through blizzards and heat waves, he was intrigued and bewildered. Captivated by the seemingly implausible tale of a wild super-athlete aging more slowly than the rest of us, he was determined to meet the apocryphal white-haired man who was pushing the boundaries of the human mind and body beyond what anyone could dream was possible. What Popplewell witnessed on a secluded mountain perch led him on a six-year odyssey to uncover the true story of the 81-year-old man. Outsider takes readers on a remarkable journey from Nazi-occupied Norway to Argentina and British Columbia. The book chronicles how a child born under mysterious circumstances during World War II finds his way onto the big screen in Goldfinger, is heralded as the world's first extreme skier, and is later driven into the wilderness. Both joyful and tragic, Outsider presents a bold challenge to our notions of aging, belonging and human accomplishment.

The Geography of Memory : Reclaiming the Cultural, Natural and Spiritual History of the Snayackstx (Sinixt) First People

Pearkes, Eileen Delehanty, 1961-


2nd Edition Parting the veil of time -- Rivers as highways and byways -- Revelstoke to Fauquier : journey into the heartland -- Fauquier to Castlegar : long shadows in a broad valley -- Rossland to Omak, WA : following the salmon -- Slocan Lake to Slocan Pool : land of the living -- Bonnington Falls to the West Arm & Salmo shifting geographies -- Spokane, WA, to Sinixt Territory lines and shaded areas -- Gathering it all in. A provocative, historical investigation into the displacement of the Snayackstx (Sinixt) First People of British Columbia's West Kootenays. This compact book records a quest for understanding, to find the story behind the Snayackstx (Sinixt) First Nation. Known in the United States as the Arrow Lakes Indians of the Colville Confederated Tribes, the tribe lived along the upper Columbia River and its tributaries for thousands of years. In a story unique to First Nations in Canada, the Canadian federal government declared them "extinct" in 1956, eliminating with the stroke of a pen this tribe's ability to legally access 80 per cent of their trans-boundary traditional territory. Part travelogue, part cultural history, the book details the culture, place names, practices, and landscape features of this lost tribe of British Columbia, through a contemporary lens that presents all readers with an opportunity to participate in reconciliation.
