{"product_id":"9781974127429","title":"Alberta Originals: Stories of Albertans Who Made a Difference","description":"The huge success of Brian Brennan's bestselling Building a Province: 60 Alberta Lives left readers clamouring for more. Alberta Originals is his response to the demand, featuring 60 additional significant and influential Albertans. From philanthropists to local characters, artists of oil-patch executives, Alberta Originals is filled with people who made a unique contribution to the social, economic, cultural and political foundations of Alberta. Each person was an original who brought their energy and visions to the shaping of a province with a history of embracing the unusual and entrepreneurial. Brian Brennan provides a fresh look at these province builders, highlighting little-known details from the lives of the Famous Five, \"Bible Bill\" Aberhart, Frank McMahon, Catharine Robb Whyte, Ernest Manning, Bruno Engler and many more. Praise for this book: \"If there's any justice this side of the Pearly Gates, it resides in the eye of a fair-minded biographer. Not only does Brian Brennan give overdue credit and redress neglect, but he makes sense of the province's past by revisiting the lives of Alberta's dear departed.\" - Edmonton Journal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eBrian Brennan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eCreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJul 31, 2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e224 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1974127427\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781974127429\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46702207861041,"sku":"9781974127429","price":14.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781974127429.jpg?v=1690371273","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781974127429","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
