It's what we can still learn from today. Three stories of obscure Canadians come alive as they are told in the first person. An incident that was recorded as happening on the prairie in the late 1800s is told as a humor piece. Letters found in a local museum are turned into an overview of the tragedy that was World War I. Finally, we remember the efforts of Donald Carruthers to found the Manitoba Agricultural Museum. Illustrated with vintage photographs, this is a collection suitable for anyone interested in history...or simply anyone who enjoys a unique story about real people.
