This review is from: TERRY (Paperback)

Terry Fox was the Hero that Canada always needed. He was also the hero that we lost way too quickly. As I held this book in my hand and looked at his wonderful 1970's snapshoots and cringed at the page with his personal handwriting.

Although I have a love/hate relationship with Douglas Coupland
work he clearly understands Canada and it's need for heros and shows a private side of Terry Fox the man.

Since Terry Fox has already won a place in the hearts of Canada maybe the world should know more about the story of the young man who used every cell in his body to fight the disease that was cuting his life way too shot.

Douglas Coupland tells us the story of Canada's hero and it a story the world needs to know with detail that we about our modern anti-heros like Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.
