| 520 | |a "A subarctic mine on the far eastern shores of Great Bear Lake provided Canadian uranium for the bombs detonated over Japan in August 1945. However, a complete history of Canada's involvement in the Manhattan project and the development of the atomic bomb has been thwarted by restrictions on classified documents. [This book] overcomes these restrictions in an innovative and unconventional history that assembles a narrative from fragments -- interviews, Indigenous stories, archives, and physical remains -- while questioning whether it is possible to grasp the past by sifting through what remains. Uncovering the story of the radioactive ore's route from mine to weapon of mass destruction, Peter van Wyck considers the legacy of this history for the Dene community and inquires into trauma, landscape, disaster, and memory. ... weaves together crucial missing pieces about the beginning of the Atomic Age in startling and unexpected ways."--Jacket | ||
