The Real Story brought to you by HarperCollins Canada
February 2010

The 2008 presidential race was one of the most dramatic in recent history. Even  people without American citizenship followed it closely.

But no one followed it as closely as John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, two of America's leading political reporters. They used their unrivalled access to conduct hundreds of interviews with the people who were there and built those interviews into an amazing true story that reads like a fast-paced political novel.

Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime tells the real story behind the headlines and is the definitive account of the campaign of a lifetime.

I hope you like it,

Cory

Debt-Free Forever


Debt-Free Forever

Gail Vaz-Oxlade, Canada's favourite money maven, is "between the covers" (as she says on her website). Just like her show, Till Debt Do Us Part, this new book dispenses hard-hitting wisdom on getting out of debt and staying there.

Debt-Free Forever is a simple, comprehensive road map to getting out of debt fast (36 months or less!) and while simple and easy are two different things, Gail's kick-butt approach will keep you hooked for the whole ride.

Even if you're already debt-free, check out this book. Gail will take the most financially-savvy among us and have him or her looking over the books just one more time.
