Originating in two rocky torrents in the Shick-Shock Mountains, the Grand Cascapedia River cuts across the forested wilderness of Quebec’s Gaspé Peninsula and empties into Chaleur Bay. Just as exceptional as the river’s natural beauty are the giant salmon that return there each summer to spawn. Known to the local Micmac Indians from time immemorial, these outsize fish have attracted wealthy and well-connected sportsmen including captains of industry and U.S. presidents since the mid-nineteenth century. Now, in these exhaustively researched and superbly written volumes, veteran angler Hoagy B. Carmichael reveals the eventful history of this most exclusive salmon river.The first volume of The Grand Cascapedia River recounts the discovery of the river’s salmon by adventurous outdoorsmen in the 1840s; the assignment of fishing rights on the river to successive Governors General of Canada, as a curious perk of office; and in a fascinating encounter between the Gilded Age and the northern wilds the subsequent purchase of those rights by a small group of American millionaires, the Old Club.” The second volume begins with the dissolution of the Old Club in the depths of the Great Depression and traces the development of the private camps, each with its own character and lore, that are found along the river today. It also explores the management of the river’s natural resources and the present-day division of fishing rights between the camps, the Micmacs, and the public.Both volumes are illustrated with hundreds of rare archival photographs, as well as original maps and drawings. The Grand Cascapedia River represents an important contribution not only to the annals of sport, but also to social history and wildlife conservation and management.

From the Editor: « Le dimanche qui suivit, différents signes annoncèrent que quelque chose allait se produire. Ce fut déjà et cela dès l'aube une chaleur oppressante, sans brise aucune. L'air semblait s'être solidifié autour de l'île, dans une transparence compacte et gélatineuse qui déformait ça et là l'horizon quand il ne l'effaçait pas : l'île flottait au milieu de nulle part. Le Brau luisait de reflets de meringue. Les laves noires à nu en haut des vignes et des vergers frémissaient comme si soudain elles redevenaient liquides. Les maisons très vite se trouvèrent gorgées d'une haleine éreintante qui épuisa les corps comme les esprits. On ne pouvait y jouir d'aucune fraîcheur. Puis il y eut une odeur, presque imperceptible au début, à propos de laquelle on aurait pu se dire qu'on l'avait rêvée, ou qu'elle émanait des êtres, de leur peau, de leur bouche, de leurs vêtements ou de leurs intérieurs. Mais d'heure en heure l'odeur s'affirma. Elle s'installa d'une façon discrète, pour tout dire clandestine. » About the Author: Philippe Claudel is a French writer and film director.

First published in 1878, The Analytical Theory of Heat is Alexander Freeman's English translation of French mathematician Joseph Fourier's Théorie Analytique de la Chaleur, originally published in French in 1822. In this groundbreaking study, arguing that previous theories of mechanics advanced by such scientific greats as Archimedes, Galileo, Newton and their successors did not explain the laws of heat, Fourier set out to study the mathematical laws governing heat diffusion and proposed that an infinite mathematical series may be used to analyse the conduction of heat in solids. Known in scientific circles as the 'Fourier Series', this work paved the way for modern mathematical physics. This translation, now reissued, contains footnotes that cross-reference other writings by Fourier and his contemporaries, along with 20 figures and an extensive bibliography. This book will be especially useful for mathematicians who are interested in trigonometric series and their applications.

Derrière la dune, au-delà du Grand Erg occidental, c'est le désert, sa lumière aveuglante, sa chaleur et ses vents de sable, son ciel immense qu'ont oublié les citadins. Mais aussi ceux qui ne marchent plus. Zohra, hier nomade, a dû arrêter cette marche éternelle qui était sa raison de vivre, le contraire d'une errance. Avec une partie de son clan, elle s'est installée là, au pied de la dune, à la frontière des deux mondes, où elle est devenue l'inoubliable conteuse des temps anciens, le pilier de la sagesse et des traditions bédouines. De nombreux enfants l'entourent, l'écoutent, fascinés, entretenir la magie de la route du sel et des longues caravanes qui sillonnent le Sahara - tandis que l'Algérie bascule dans la guerre. Sa petite fille Leïla, l'une des premières jeunes femmes de la tribu à maîtriser l'écriture, est aussi la plus rebelle à la condition de recluse qu'on veut lui réserver. Elle puisera dans ses racines nomades la force de s'opposer à son destin, au poids des coutumes d'un autre âge...
