True North Rising

A reporter’s memoir recounting the remarkable events and the extraordinary people who spoke up across Canada’s Northern Territories to challenge the colonial attitudes and policies of the past, bringing lasting change and the prospect of greater justice and equality to come.

“This is a huge embrace of a book, irresistible on every level. Whit Fraser brings an uncanny feel for what truly matters to the telling of his own life as it plays into the unfolding saga of the Canadian North.”
