Publisher's Synopsis
Growing up in the North isn't for the faint of heart or weak of spirit. Even when you were lucky enough to get past the midwinter of dark obsessions there was still plenty of time for something to grow in your mind before the midnight sun of summer could burn it away. Mom joked about a lot of things but never that.This book is about growing up Canadian. It's a little bit talk-story with some history in it, but that doesn't mean it's about facts. For sure it isn't that but if you want a real one: Trans-Canada #1 is The Greatest Highway In The World and you don't have to be a Canadian to discover that.It's a fast and fun ride but not a straight one, so fasten your seat belt just in case.
