Not the rhymes of a Rhodes scholar but a lumpen proletariat thats done 30 years hard time in the worlds biggest single logging division. Contract faller death statistics in British Columbia woods exceeded those of US troops in Viet Nam. Few tree fellers survive to retire at 65. Poetry style emulates Robbie Burns & Robert Service & if it knocked Moslems as much as it mocks Christian fundamentalism, a fatwah would be declared against the author. Salman Rushdies book Satanic Verses put a million dollar price on his head but sold a few more books then. Sacred cows are not spared in this book & a few centuries earlier it would have been classed heresy, warranting a stake burning. Writers aim at controversy to sell but since popes no longer wield absolute power, they send authors to Coventry obscurity.

Lunch-Bucket Lives takes the reader on a bumpy ride through the history of Hamilton’s working people from the 1890s to the 1930s. It ambles along city streets, peers through kitchen doors and factory windows, marches up the steps of churches and fraternal halls, slips into saloons and dance halls, pauses to hear political speeches, and, above all, listens for the stories of men, women, youths, and children from families where people relied mainly on wages to survive. Heron takes wage-earning as a central element in working-class life, but also looks beyond the workplace into the households and neighbourhoods—settlement patterns and housing, marriage, child care, domestic labour, public health, schooling, charity and social work, popular culture, gender identities, ethnicity and ethnic conflict, and politics in various forms—presenting a comprehensive view of working-class life in the first half of the twentieth century. This book has been published with the help of a grant from the Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences, through the Awards to Scholarly Publications Program, using funds provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
