description: Will Ferguson has spent the past three years criss-crossing Canada. In a helicopter above the barrenlands of the sub-arctic: in a canoe with his four year-old-son: on board seaplanes and along the Underground Railroad, Ferguson's travels have taken him from Cape Spear on the remote coast of Newfoundland to the sun-dappled streets of Olde Victoria. Through his engaging and witty prose style he takes us on a journey of discovery through Canada's hidden history and landscape. Funny, poignant and insightful, Beauty Tips from Moosejaw is a provocative tribute to a quirky and fascinating country.
