The author uses the new fast rising yeast with special time-saving techniques to produce exceptional bread in half or even a third of the usual time. The easy to follow recipes include a breakdown of preparation, rising and baking times — some of which take less than an hour —and you don’t sacrifice old-fashioned goodness or taste to speed of production. * 28 « If you'd rather read about food than stand-in the: kitchen preparing it, Elizabeth David's An Omelette and a Glass of Wine should satisfy and entertain you. Miss David's cookery books have been cooks’ classics for 35 years, the excellence of her ‘recipes combining with Canada by train captured in book much so that you're sometimes in danger of just having a good read instead of getting on with the meal preparations. But this is.the first time a selection from her journalistic work has been available in book form. Articles, book reviews and travel pieces mingle with des- criptions of delicious meals eaten in exotic places and share with us her intense appreciation of books, people and good food. : ‘ = 8 « edalling the Ends of the Earth by David Duncan, is the story of three young men who bicycled around the + world, pedalling 22,500 kilometres in 13 months. The journey took them from Europe into Africa, Asia and North America. On the way, the men lived with Bedouins on the Sinai, Ethiopian refugees in the Sudan, ill ‘through the eyes of Offred, as she reveals the dark Book of Genesis ‘exactly at _its word, with bizarre consequences for women, who are now considéred handmaids under the new social order. The story is told corners behind the establishment's calm facade. * ‘Another arresting novelfrom a famous Canadian woman writer is Berlin by Sylvia Fraser. In it, she recreates with terrifying realism the gights, sounds and passions that were Berlin in the crisis filled years from 1923-1945, telling how a group of young Germans were caught up in the nightmare that devastated Europe. Apoor Aryan youth rises to be a high ranking SS officer, . a Catholic peasant with misplaced idealism, becomes @ fighters on the Afghanistan border and boat people in Malaysia. They were. robbed and mobbed, faced sand- storms, blizzards and typhoons. In the midst of all this adventure, they discovered a world filled with beauty and agony, and Duncan's ride became a personal search for his own place in a world caught between the extremes of wealth and poverty. . en. Barry Broadfoot’s latest volume of oral history The Veterans’ Years is a collection of the reminiscences of Canadians returning to Canada at the end of World War Il. These, mainly unsung, herdes came back with high hopes and dreams, to find that life had gone on without them. There were few jobs, little or no housing, many of them found their wives hadn't waited for them and they must have wondered what they'd been fighting for. However, some, like Broadfoot himself, took advantage of government funding to go to uni i iden of and a | cabaret singer attracts the eye of Hitler. With her graphic-depictions of the anarchy and spiritual decay that marked Germany after World War I, Miss Fraser makes us understand how Hitler managed to seduce a whole nation. . . Depths of Glory is Irving Stone's latest vast biographical novel, a study of the life of Camille Pissarro, one of the most important and endearing figures in all art history. He was a brilliant and prolific painter and the beloved father figure of the French Impressionists. Set against the vibrant backdrop of 19th century Europe. the novel opens as West Indian-born Pissarro arrives in Paris to study painting. Soon afterwards, he evolves a totally new style that izes the art i and, along with others of similar vision, he’s banished from the charmed circle of accepted artists. With the support of his lovely mate, others started businesses or went back to the farm, but all started again with great jons. As usual, Julia, he i ly fights back against the crushing blows of poverty and rejection and paints on. This Broadfoot went the length and breadth of the country, interviewing scores of veterans, men and women in their 60s and 70s now but with memories of those difficult years still fresh and bright, and they're still buoyed by the knowledge that they were the people who moulded the Canada we. know today. epee A new novel from Margaret Atwood is always a big event. The i’s Tale is a radical departure for her as it is set in the near future, describing life in what was once the United States. Now it has become the Republic of Gilead, a churchmen’s regime which has resorted to the — so Pp’ of the early Puritans. It takes the work helps us realize how much blood, sweat and tears went into the paintings we accept today as treasured masterpieces. oe fechce Family Linen by Lee Smith, is a rollicking comic novel which explores the mystery of families and how they work, and the aloneness of the individuals within them.

While other sectors of the economy pulled out of the 1982 ion, mining i ined in a slump. Demand stayed slack as buyers cut costs, Third World producers entered the market and a continuing high U.S. dollar battered prices in Canadian terms. Noranda, which reported a major loss in the first nine months of 1985 compared with a slight profit in the same period last year, said prices for many of its products are below 1982 levels. . “We have warned before that it might be dangerous to assume that what came down must go up,” said analyst Patrick Mars of Alfred Bunting and Co. Ltd. “Simply put, current demand for base or industrial metals is weak and supplies are adequate.” Here's a rundown of nine-month results of some of Canada’s largest mining and metals producers: e Montreal-based Alcan, which topped Canadian metals companies ‘last year with sales of $7.1 billion, earned $32 million, down sharply from $52 million in the same period last year. NORANDA LOST e Toronto-based Noranda, the No. 2 mining concern, lost $54.9 million, compared with a profit of $4 million a ‘year earlier. e Cominco Ltd., a large zinc, lead and silver producer, was $25.6 million in the red, compared with a profit of $29.3 million in the same period last year. ~ Anderson elected By CasNews Staff Incumbent director Mary Wade Anderson of Century Glen Wilson of Century 21 Mountainview Agencies in Castlegar received two His music is all from the_ fingers.
