This collection of oral histories was compiled by a group of Montreal alternative high school students who conducted dozens of interviews. No more boring history textbooks! These students wanted to know first-hand what it felt like to be a part of iconic moments in Canadian history. From the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Montreal Summer Olympics to Terry Fox and Marc Garneau, this book will transport you back in time. The words between these covers will not simply teach you about these events - they will allow you to 'feel into' the history and come as close as one can to actually being there. Be ready to be feel excitement as you take a ride on the monorail at Expo '67 or to experience anxiety and fear as you anticipate a mailbox explosion during the October Crisis. These words are from people who actually lived these moments.
