Reviews
“Tailings of Warren Peace is a gripping tale that eerily reflects a disturbing reality in global politics. It takes the reader on a scintillating and mysterious journey that twists and turns from Canada to Guatemala, war to peace, and loss to love. This book is a celebration of the human spirit.”
- Garry Leech, author of Beyond Bogota
“Tailings of Warren Peace manages to wind disparate threads into a ripping yarn, wound around personal stories … While the characters and the situations may be fictional, they bring to light truths too often kept hidden, telling of the depth of disruption and corruption engendered by mining companies’ insatiable need to profit from the Earth’s riches and the workers who extract them … A great read.”
- Jamie Kneen, MiningWatch Canada
