Cass feels the long winter shadows on her heart. Her mother died of cancer and her father has remarried a woman who has moved into their old Manitoba house with her nasty, babyish daughter and an attitude that's very hard to take. Christmas promises to be a miserable time. More than a century earlier, Christmas is proving to be difficult for Beatrice, too, for she has shadows of her own. Some are cast by her circumstances. She sees the growing prejudice against people like her who are of mixed Cree and Scottish backgrounds. And like Cass, she has a stepmother. Her father's new wife is threatened by Beatrice and is driving a wedge into the family. Beatrice can only be sure of her beloved Cree grandmother, relegated to a room upstairs. When a way of escape presents itself to Beatrice by way of an eligible bachelor, she is torn by the choice it offers her. Should she settle for a man she doesn't love or address the problems at home? Through her journal, she explores the answer and, at the same time, inspires Cass to find the strength she needs to face her own situation. Margaret Buffie's great skill as a storyteller creates a splendid, engaging novel that offers readers a rich combination of fine history, suspenseful shifts in time, and unforgettable characters.

The High Sky of Winters Shadows by W. Jack Savage is a collection of thoughts, reminiscences, eyewitness accounts and random opinions gleaned from journals, various notebook entries, graduate school projects, letters and at least two previous attempts at putting together a compilation such as this. They represent first person accounts spanning more than six decades through the eyes of one baby boomer. Told in essays of four-hundred words or less, Savage holds his bias as one whose eyes remained open through it all. However, this is also an exercise in soul searching as by his own account Jacks extraordinary memory offers a reminder that peering into the past can be a two-edged sword. While it may at times be painful, it may also provide valuable lessons that may re-color our first impressions. In the end however, it is the memories of a lifetime: of struggling through school, trouble at home, service in Vietnam and a career in radio of over thirty years; of little snapshots of life and crossroads remembered; of marriage, parenthood, acting, disappointment and the determination to share his stories in the hope that someone may find a sliver of light in the midst of their struggles.
