<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Literary scholar </span><a href="https://www.upress.virginia.edu/title/3806" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stephanie L. Hawkins</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> explains that, “as one of the world’s most widely recognized distributors of global images, </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">National Geographic </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">has filled an important role in what Arjun Appadurai has termed the global mediascape” by circulating knowledge about distant lands and peoples among their readers (9). </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">The National Geographic's</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Book of Fishes </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">attests to this role by demonstrating how the National Geographic brand extended beyond the well-known magazine, first published in 1888, to offer stand-alone reference books and, in the twenty-first century, <a href="https://www.nationalgeographic.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">web content</a>. </span></p>
<p><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Book of Fishes </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">combines text with colour photographs and reproductions of paintings, demonstrating the ease with which different media could be printed side-by-side in the twentieth century. From the 1950s up until 1978, National Geographic employed </span><a href="https://vimeo.com/78230375" target="_blank" rel="noopener">four-colour process letterpress</a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> to print their images. By 1958, when this book was published, it was no longer remarkable to include photographs in a reference book, as it had been in publications like </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Charles Darwin’s </span><a href="https://omeka.library.ualberta.ca/exhibits/show/photograpies/item/3145"><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Expression of the Emotion in Man and Animals</span></i></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (1872) or </span><em><a href="https://omeka.library.ualberta.ca/exhibits/show/photograpies/item/3040">Hoofs, Claws and Antlers of the Rocky Mountains by the Camera</a></em> (1894).</p>

Title
A name given to the resource
The World Famine and the Duty of Canada
Description
An account of the resource
This privately published pamphlet was produced by the noted Canadian lawyer John Skirving Ewart. Educated at Upper Canada College and Osgoode Hall, Ewart lived in Winnipeg from 1882 to 1904 before moving to Ottawa to become an outstanding counsel before the Supreme Court of Canada and the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council (“John Skirving Ewart”). A fierce Canadian nationalist, Ewart notes that a decrease in the European food supply made Canada “the most important factor in the world. She has illimitable areas of choicest lands all ready for the plough. She could add enormously to her exportable surplus in a single year. She could save vast numbers of persons from famine, and thousands from death. She could help materially to preserve a falling world from anarchy and overwhelming ruin. She could do all this—if she tried to do it.” He criticizes Prime Minister Borden’s inaction, while repeating quotations that urge farmers to increase productivity, as important to the war effort as fighting in the trenches.
