Q: What are the merits of The Forgotten Explorer, and why should people vote for it?
A: Albertans should vote for The Forgotten Explorer because it uncovers aspects Alberta's history that many people have never even considered. These journals represent Alberta in its infancy, when the territory was still relatively free of any urban development, industrial plans or tourist traps. If ever there was a book that Albertans should read, surely it is one that captures what we were like not that long ago, putting into perspective our incredible development over the past century and illustrating how remote, barren and wild this now urban and contemporary landscape once was.
