Canadian Politics: An Introduction is a comprehensive and integrated introductory-level text for students with little prior knowledge or experience of Canadian politics. In plain language, it describes the main features of Canadian politics today and provides a framework for understanding the political forces at work in Canadian society. This text is both descriptive and conceptual. Recurring throughout are interest boxes that highlight key political concepts, political issues, and Canadian politicians. The 'key concepts' and 'key issues' draw attention to important political concepts and issues that need to be understood by anyone seeking to know more about Canadian political life. This conceptual material is especially useful when it comes time to write essays, study and review. Canadian Politics: An Introduction is intended as a lively and stimulation introduction to Canadian politics. Above all, it is designed to encourage young Canadians to take a greater interest in Canadian politics and perhaps even get involved.

Memories of a Mackinac Island Native: Life on the Island from 1940s to 2020s

Winner of the U.P. Notable Books Award (2025) 
Join me on a trip to Mackinac Island's past, from the late 1940s to the present day. These are my memories of growing up on the Island, as well as some earthshaking changes that happened to affect everyone: the end of steamship visits, the building of the Mackinac Bridge, the increasing size and speed of passenger ferries, the introduction of new transportation (from 10-speeds to snowmobiles) and much more. On a more personal level, I'll share stories of how I earned my living on the Island, from house painting, cooking and bartending to delivering ferries from the factory. I'll also share my love for music and just plain having fun in rock-and-roll bands. This book includes many of my own photos that allow you to peek behind the curtains of the Jewel of the Great Lakes. 
"Finally a book written about the Island, by a man who's lived here his whole life. A true, first-hand account of the history and nuances of Mackinac that cannot be found in any other tome. This is the first of what - I hope - becomes a collection." --Jason St. Onge, Mackinac native, fire chief, councilman and businessman. 
"Tom Chambers' lifetime first-hand knowledge of Mackinac Island business history (especially ferries), local characters and fascinating Island lore make him a valued go-to resource for residents, as well as anyone interested in the Island. His deep family ties and experiences growing up and working on the Island always inform any discussion of Mackinac. I learn more about our beloved Island every time we speak." --Marta Olson, Mackinac Island author, Mintaka Designs. 
"This is a true, born-and-raised Islander perspective. Teen years on a snowmobile (when no one knew what they were), beach parties with a guitar, bike relays with competitors that turned into friends. An avid photographer and lifelong collector of memorabilia and stories, Tom Chambers has cataloged life on Mackinac for the last 50 years and now has a story, or two, to tell." -- Becki McIntire Barnwell, Islander and former co-owner of Hotel Iroquois. 
"I recommend Memories of a Mackinac Island Native for its first-hand account of the author's personal history, because of its remarkable island lore, captivating characters and rich Mackinac Island history. His real-life experiences such as the harrowing time he spent on the Straits of Mackinac II during a storm brought to life the danger that exists when traveling on the Great Lakes." -- Sharon Brunner, UP Book Review 
"I found Tom Chambers' detailed recording and history of the development of the ferry service to the island and the names and descriptions of the many ferries that plied the waters of the straits very interesting. His descriptions of how the island's Main Street changed over the years are fascinating. Readers will skip very few chapters" -- Tom Powers, Michigan In Books

For about twenty-fiveyears Tom Chambers has explored the medium of photography to create photomontages which are inspired largely from travel in the American West, NewEngland, Mexico, Italy, and Iceland. &nbsp;Photomontageis Tom's unique way to present unspoken stories which illustrate fleetingmoments in time and which are intended to evoke a mood in the viewer. Thefeelings might range from tranquility to turbulence. Through the intentionaluse of magic realism, the photomontages look believable, but improbable. Eachphotomontage is carefully constructed, using both images that have been plannedand those that unexpectedly enhance the story. Tom desires to move beyond documentation of the present, and rather seekto fuse reality and fantasy in musing about possibilities of the future. &nbsp; Over time Tom hascompleted nine photographic series, each with fifteen to twenty-fivephotographs which have been exhibited in more than twenty solo shows and abouta hundred group exhibitions and art fairs.&nbsp;Tom's work is represented by six galleries in the United States andEurope.&nbsp; Tom has received fellowships from the Virginia Museum of FineArts and the Virginia Commission for the Arts.&nbsp; Entropic Kingdom,containing images from five series, was published by Modernbook Editions in2012.&nbsp; Galerie Vevais published Werkdruck No. 6in 2015, featuring his Illuminationseries.
