Description:
<li>The marginalization of local people at the hands of dominant structures has a wide appeal to a range of groups in society and this work is part of that emancipatory debate.
<.i>The book is controversial because it challenges Canadians "good" sense of themselves. It makes clear that our staples economy is built on exploitation of nature and of local people.
<li>Uses first hand accounts of fishers and crofters to reframe how we think about our country.
<li>Combines a "ripping yarn" with a strong social justice critique and gives voice to people who would otherwise not be in the historical record.
