What Others Have Said About Janet: My Grandmother's Stories

"Keith Brower has captured the fascinating story of his maternal grandmother's migration from the English speaking eastern townships of Quebec to the farming life of east central Alberta after WWI. Important, the author's grasp of the English language creates the required pictures for the reader's imagination to stay with the story line. The stories have been organized on basic chronological sequence but the memories are not verbatim accounts; the memories of his grandmother's stories are re-told in the author's own words. The book will make an important contribution to understanding the post WWI development of Alberta. The added feature is the drawings at the beginning of each chapter which are the author's own artistic contribution."- Dr. David Rainey, Senior Research Fellow, UK
