Pictures and excerpts from “These Be Your Gods” by Leslie Roberts, illustrated by A. G. Racey. The book conists of a series of short articles about famous people in Canada.

I previously though the text was out of copyright, but it turns out he was still writing in 2002 at least, so the text will not pass out of copyright until at least 2052.

“I am glad that I was not born to the jobs of the Prince of Wales. I rejoice that my life does not consist of equal parts levees, unveilings, posing for the photographers, changing my clothes, riding in the front [more...] [$]
