Win A Copy of Vancouver Special!

Simply enter a comment below for your chance to win a copy of Vancouver Special.

In Vancouver Special , writer and performer Charles Demers examines the who, what, where, when, why, and how of Vancouver, shedding light on the various strategies and influences that have made the city what it is today (as well as what it should be)

I personally really like Charlie for his hilarious stand-up (he’s clever, witty and he knows his history). Bringing his personality to print and talking about Vancouver – this would make a great Christmas gift for anyone who loves our city!

Comment Below and I’ll randomly pick the comment to receive a copy of the book at 12pm PST on Friday Dec. 11th!

For more info on the book, check it out at Arsenal Pulp Press here

    Was looking for this at Chapters the other day but couldn’t find it. Maybe I could cut Chapters out of the equation all together!

    I’ve been very curious about this book since I first read about it in the Straight. It’s on my Xmas list.

    Would love to read and see the images in this book. My parents came to Vancouver back in the 1950s, so they’ve witnessed the dramatic changes over the decades. It’ll be poignant (and funny) too as I’ve lived in a ‘Vancouver Special’ for over 20 years now :)

    I touched the author today (physically) at a sushi bar today! I will only wash again if I get the book! Actually I saw Charlie on TV this morning talking about his book and missed the title. Luckily as I mentioned – I bumped into the man of the hour today.
