Tuesdays with Tundra is a monthly post on our new releases. The following books are available today in stores and online!
Five Thousand Years of Slavery
By Marjorie Gann and Janet Willen
Hardcover | Ages 11+
ISBN 9780887769146
“…the authors weave their narrative around contemporary accounts and documented incidents, supplemented by period images or photos and frequent sidebar essays…. For timeliness, international focus and, particularly, accuracy, this leaves Richard Watkins’ Slavery: Bondage Throughout History (2001) in the dust….” – Kirkus Reviews
Shipwrecks, Monsters, and Mysteries of the Great Lakes
By Ed Butts
Trade Paperback | Ages 9-12
ISBN 9781770492066
eBook 9781770492585
“Younger readers … will find these robust historical accounts more digestible and at least as engrossing. The bibliography is dominated by Canadian sources, as befitting the book’s origin, but there’s plenty here to interest American readers.” – Kirkus Reviews

Thanks!
I’d love to read Shipwrecks, Monsters, and Mysteries of the Great Lakes. Thanks!!
My 12 yr old daughter would definately learn a lot with either book, I’m sure! I would love to get my hands on ‘Shipwrecks, Monsters, and Mysteries of the Great Lakes’ for her, so that she could learn historical accounts from Canadian sources. It surely is important for Canadians to know about their homeland!
Thanks for the opportunity.
I’d love to win Shipwrecks, Monsters, and Mysteries of the Great Lakes for my grandchildren!
Thank you for the giveaway!
I think the FIVE THOUSAND YEARS OF SLAVERY would be interesting. Thanks 🙂
I think the shipwrecks books looks awesome. I tried to win it on GoodReads too. I think my 9 year old would even like it, although not sure he would be able to get over that the author’s last name is Butts : ) Good luck everyone.
I’d love “Shipwrecks, Monsters, and Mysteries of the Great Lakes” — I devoured these kinds of books when I was younger, and this one sounds great, especially since I live in SW Ontario.
Five Thousand Years of Slavery sounds like it would be a chilling read, but very educational. I’d love to read and review it.
Both books look great, but I would love Five Thousand Years of Slavery.
Thanks for the chance.

Shipwrecks, Monsters, and Mysteries of the Great Lakes
By Ed Butts
I live near Lake Huron and the local stories would be especially interesting!
i’d like to win the shipwrecks book. i live right on a great lake – would be really interesting
I like the Five Thousand Years of Slavery……looks very interesting
I would love to read ‘Five Thousand Years of Slavery’… I’ve heard about this book and it sounds fascinating. Not only does it cover slavery in the historical context, but my understanding is that it also covers modern slavery. There is also an examination of the reasons for this form of horror and why it still exists. Thanks!
