Canadians are removing American liquor and wines from their store shelves and pulling back on future visits to the U.S.
They are uncharacteristically dropping their politeness towards America over what they see as a betrayal by a longtime friend. https://nbcnews.to/4kAcrQw

Subjugation will not end war. Trump and Putin are joint enterprise in the looting of Ukraine can't be sugar coated as saving lives. Vance is more of a sociopath by the minute. Ukraine & their President are in my prayers.

The best thing you can do for an author is to request their book from your library. The library will usually get it for you! The author will get an immediate sale, and libraries will know there is a demand for their future books! Just google your library name plus "book request" or walk in and ask
Library purchases are purchases. They pay the press. The press counts them towards advances and royalties. And (gasp) the book is in a library!! It’s wonderful and no one should ever feel bad about getting a book through a library instead of buying it.
I got it from my local library system, which has 28 physical copies (more than half are checked out) and 4 audiobooks. The branch library is two blocks from my house so I get most of my books from there. Hope this helps because I loved the book - I'm not a historian and knew nothing of that period.
