Raise You on the River: Essays and Encounters 1964-2018

For some six decades Barry Callaghan has been a singular presence in Canada. His distinctive literary style, tone and temperament reveal him to be an inquisitive observer, thoughtful commentator, and assiduous craftsman. Always attuned to history and in covert search of adventure, he is also a public scholar, unflinching before the harsh complexities of our time. Raise You on the River is the fourth volume of essays from Canada’s Man of Letters.
