BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."
Featuring remarkable landscapes and powerful portraits, Dave Brosha’s first book of photography transports the viewer to stunning Arctic and Subarctic locations.
“Epic, awesome shots …” —Martin Hartley, National Geographic contributing photographer
“Amazing shots …” —Phil Plait, “Bad Astronomy” from Discover magazine
“One of the most celebrated creative photographers in the world …” —Nikon
“Critically acclaimed … spectacular photos …” —The Globe and Mail
Dave Brosha is one of Canada's most passionate and widely published photographers. On a continual journey to seek out and capture the beauty of this world, he produces work that covers a wide spectrum of photographic genres. With stunning photographs taken in Greenland, Iceland, the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, the Torngats of Newfoundland and Labrador, and the Yukon this remarkably original portfolio will amaze viewers and inspire everyone to reconsider the nature of these sometimes forgotten landscapes.
“Brosha’s remarkable ability to move effortlessly between portraits, landscapes and several other genres is a treat for readers seeking a fuller picture of the North.”
...lush full-colour photographs that strive to dispel our illusions about the high north being barren and stark.
"[Northern Light] allows readers to see through Brosha's lens and understand his impressions of the regions through written introductions that explore his growing adoration for the North."
