Waiser, Bill Park Prisoners : The Untold Story of Western Canada's National Parks, 1915-1946
Calgary, AB, Canada Fifth House Publishers 2007 9781895618747 Third Printing Softcover New
It's a compelling look at a troubled time in Canada's history. Park Prisoners tells the astonishing and deeply troubling story of the construction of our country 's mountain and prairie parks. Although their natural beauty and rusticity make them national treasures, it is little known that they were built through the enforced labour of thousands of homeless men, prisoners of war and conscientious objectors. Bill Waiser's history of the parks is thoughtful and well researched, and an important look at one of the most controversial moments in the nation's history. More than 125 archival photographs illustrate this compelling history of how these men lived and worked, how they were treated, and the legacy they left in our national parks.
