Extractions: Print this story By Tom Hawthorn Pierre Berton remembers standing next to his father on a dusty Whitehorse street on a late summers day so quiet that husky dogs lazed in the middle of the road. He easily recalls the moment because an excited friend of his fathers had crossed the street with news. Germany is invading Poland, the man said. Its war. Berton was just 19 on Sept. 1, 1939, a skinny, red-haired youth hungry to leave the Yukon for the University of B.C. and a dashing career in journalism. He volunteered for active service in the infantry, later opting for a career in the Intelligence Corps even though his army examiner warned him that the army had no intelligence. His war became more comic opera than battlefield epic. What was he doing on VE Day, as the Allies celebrated victory in Europe over the Nazis? I was taking a course on the German Army, he said, which had been destroyed by then. Berton was born in the shadow of the Great War, served in the Second World War, and covered the Korean War as a correspondent. He was forged in war, as was the nation whose history he has chronicled.

Extractions: Annotated Bibliography: Page 2 Annotated Bibliography Why We Act Like Canadians: A Personal Exploration of Our National Character . Toronto: McClelland and Stewart, 1982/Penguin Books 1987. This book consists of a series of letters written by the historian and writer, Pierre Berton, to an imaginary American friend. The letters explain why and how Canadians are different from Americans, and what makes Canada a distinct and unique country, with its own character and values. Berton suggests that, compared to the United States, Canada has emphasized such values as trust, peace and order, and a willingness to give up some measure of personal freedom for the sake of the common good. He also explains how and why Canada came to accept and value cultural diversity, so that Canada is best seen as a mosaic and not a melting-pot as in the United States. Berton pays special attention to the influence of Canada's history and geography. A Nation Too Good to Lose: Renewing the Purpose of Canada . Toronto: Key Porter Books, 1994.

http://www.randomhouse.ca/readmag/page16_about_author_book.htm

Extractions: The first war of the century, which took Canadian soldiers to South Africa, and the last, which sent them to Korea, bracket the bookends on the shelf of history. They have a good deal in common with, these two minor conflicts, whose chronicles pale when compared to the bloodbaths of the two world wars. Canada's wartime days are long past, and for many, the scars of war have healed. Vimy has been manicured clean, its pockmarked slopes softened by a green mantle of Canadian pines. Dieppe has reverted to a resort town, its beaches long since washed free of Canadian blood. Nowadays, Canadians are proud of their role as Peacekeepers, from which they have gained a modicum of international acclaim the nation has always craved, with precious little blood wasted in the process. In this monumental work, Pierre Berton brings Canadian history to life once again, relying on a host of sources, including newspaper accounts and first-hand reports, to tell the story of these four wars through the eyes of the privates in the trenches, the generals at the front, and the politicians and families back home. By profiling the interwar years, Berton traces how one war led to the next, and how the country was changed in the process. Illustrated with maps and line drawings, Marching as to War describes how the experience of war helped to bind Canada together as a nation and chronicles the transformation of Canada's dependence upon Great Britain and its slow emergence as an independent nation caught in a love-hate relationship with the United States.

Extractions: "...we are a nation of canoeists, and have been since the earliest days, paddling our way up the St. Lawrence, across the lakes, over the portages of the shield, west along the North Saskatchewan through the Yellowhead gap and thence southwest by the Columbia and Fraser rivers to the sea.

Extractions: Director: Michael Rothery Categories: History Running Time: 30 minutes More Information Cast Synopsis Pierre Berton, a former newspaper columnist and editor, hosted his own program entitled The Pierre Berton Show from the early '60s until 1973. He regularly interviewed important artists, actors, and other public figures. Perhaps one of his most memorable segments was this interview with martial arts expert and actor Bruce Lee. Prior to Lee's early death in 1973, he provided martial arts instruction to various celebrities before beginning his acting career. He starred in such films as Enter the Dragon and Return of the Dragon. Lee speaks openly with Berton, reflecting on his acting career, his evolving views about the different approaches to martial arts, and how he chooses to live his life. ~ Elizabeth Smith, All Movie Guide
