Klondikers on year-end lists
December is the time for year-end book lists and some of them included Klondikers:
• The Globe 100, the Globe and Mail’s list of “The books we loved in 2021”:
“Falconer tells the riveting tale of a bunch of guys who travelled from the Yukon to Ottawa because they just wanted to play hockey. The frozen continent they crossed in 1905 was so treacherous that for days, the newspapers chronicling their passage lost track of them.” (Here's the Globe's review of Klondikers.)
• CBC Radio’s Day 6’s last-minute gift list:
“For the first time in more than a decade as Day 6 books columnist, [Becky] Toyne is recommending a book about hockey. But she says that Tim Falconer's latest is about far more than that.
• Outside magazine’s 2021 Sweat Science Holiday Book List:
“Falconer’s book is the story of the unlikely challenge, but more generally it’s an entertaining dive into what sports—and society—looked like a century ago.”
And some interviews:
• CBC Radio's Sunday Magazine
• Scuttlepuck podcast
• Sasktoday.ca
