Rebellion / by Scarrow, Simon,author.;
AD 60. Britannia is in turmoil. The rebel leader Boudica has tasted victory, against a force of tough veterans in Camulodunum. Alerted to the rapidly spreading uprising, Governor Suetonius leads his army towards endangered Londinium with a mounted escort, led by Prefect Cato. Soon it's terrifyingly clear that Britannia is slipping into chaos and panic, with ever more tribal warriors swelling Boudica's ranks. And Cato and Suetonius are grimly aware that little preparation has been made to withstand a full-scale rebellion. In Londinium there is devastating news. Centurion Macro is amongst those unaccounted for after the massacre at Camulodunum. Has Cato's comrade and friend made his last stand? Facing disaster, Cato prepares his next move. Dare he hope that Macro battle-scarred and fearless -- has escaped the bloodthirsty rebels? For there is only one man Cato trusts by his side as he faces the military campaign of his life. And the future of the Empire in Britannia hangs in the balance.

Kâ-pî-isi-kiskisiyân = The way I remember / by Ratt, Solomon,author,translator.; Ogg, Arden C.(Arden Catherine),1960-editor,writer of introduction.; container of (expression):Ratt, Solomon.Kâ-pî-isi-kiskisiyân.English.; container of (work):Ratt, Solomon.Kâ-pî-isi-kiskisiyân.;
"A residential school survivor finds his way back to his language and culture through his family's traditional stories. When reflecting on forces that have shaped his life, Solomon Ratt says his education was interrupted by his schooling. Torn from his family at the age of six, Ratt was placed into the residential school system--far from the love and comfort of home and family. In The Way I Remember, Ratt reflects on these memories and the life-long challenges he endured through his telling of autobiographical stories and traditional tales. In many ways, these stories reflect the experience of thousands of other Indigenous children across Canada, but Ratt's stories also stand apart in a significant way: despite the destruction wrought by colonialism, he managed to retain his mother language of Cree by returning home to his parents each summer. Ratt then shifts from the âcimisowina (personal, autobiographical stories) to âcathôhkîwina (sacred stories), the more formal and commonly recognized style of traditional Cree literature, to illustrate how, in a world uninterrupted by colonialism and its agenda of genocide, these traditional stories would have formed the winter curriculum of a Cree child's education. Presented in Cree th-dialect standard roman orthography, syllabics, and English, Ratt's particularly Cree sense of humour shines, making kâ-pî-isi-kiskisiyân / The Way I Remember an important and unique memoir that emphasizes and celebrates Solomon Ratt's perseverance and life after residential school."--
