Canada from Afar: The Daily Telegraph Book of Canadian Obituaries - Softcover

"Canada From Afar is a delightful celebration of life and death. The only regret is that the reader puts it down wishing he had known most, if not quite all, of the people in it." (Richard Mullen)

"Scruples too, of course, to contemplate the riddles of a life and the puzzles of a personality ... as Twiston Davies shows in his Canada collection, the quality press is on to something here." (David Bowman The Weekly Telegraph)

"... this book ... because of its absorbing nature and ultimate usefulness, should enjoy considerable success." (Christy McCormick)

"Brief lives and their incidents are the single tiles with which the great mosaic of history is made ... A later generation can try to assemble the grand mosaic. For now, it is enough to enjoy the tiles one by one." (Terence Moore Winnipeg Free Press)
