One for Sorrow Two for Joy
148 pages. Author's inscription and signature upon title page. Bookseller's rubber stamp inside front cover. Recaptures the bittersweet depression days in fifty short stories.

Author grew up during those years in the Ottawa River Valley as the youngest child in a warm, close-knit farm family. Some of the characters are real, some are not. While some stories are based on actual events, other come "mind-the-time" exchanges at family gatherings or from her mother's remembrances. Book

Seasons - A Tapestry of Living
Unpaginated. Circa 1988. Includes black and white illustrations. "As you read these stories you will join Eunice in the celebration of a special family occasion, the appreciation of places and happenings in the Orillia area, the spirit of adventure as she hunts rocks in the rain or goes whale watching on the St. Lawrence River, and the all-too-familiar agony of choosing a new car. You will experience with her the changing glories of the seasons, the joys - and one sudden heartbreak - of grandparenting, the morning eagerness of setting forth on new ventures and the quiet pleasure of arriving home at the end of the day. Woven into this tapestry of one person's life are threads and patterns that are common to us all... perhaps you will find their colours glowing just a little brighter as you look at them through Eunice Streeter's eyes." - Dorothy Stripp. Moderate wear.

494 pages. Apparently rebound in black half-leather and blue/gold marbled boards and endpapers. Index. "In 1899 a treaty with the Indians of the great Mackenzie basin followed the report of a Senate select Committee, chaired by Sir John Schultz; but, owing to the absence of roads and markets, and other essentials of civilized life, not to speak of the vast unsettled areas of prairie to the south, the incoming, until now that the railways are projected, of any great body of immigrants was very wisely discouraged, and this in the interest of the settler himself. The following narrative, therefore, has lain in the author's diary since the year of the expedition it records." - Preface. Numerous black and white photographic plates including tissue-protected frontis. Attractive colour fold-out map dated 1900 depicts the areas encompassed by Treaty No. 8 and the Indian tribes therein.

Sawlogs on Steel Rails
Over one inch thick. "The first major sawmill in British Columbia was the Port Alberni Anderson mill of 1860/1864, which was closed because it ran out of logs. Manager Gilbert Sproat advised the owners that to get logs to the mill they would need to build a railway. The owners refused so the mill was closed. It was to be almost fifty years until the first logging railway was built in 1912. The last train of logs was delivered to MacMillan Bloedel's Franklin River Camp A in 1957. In the intervening period more than thirty locomotives operated on hundreds of miles of railway grade in the area. Thousands of men were involved in a large number of logging camps, big and small. This 45 year period of railway logging is the subject of our story." - from back board. Abundantly illustrated in black and white. Glossy illustrated boards. Crisp, clean and unmarked with very light signs of handling. Minor cigarette smell. Excellent copy. Book
