In Scrubbing the Sky McKendrick tells a compelling story of the people and companies searching for the breakthrough that solves our biggest climate challenge. By connecting the dots from historical insights, McKendrick allows for failures and missteps, but leaves us with a sense of optimism that this seemingly impossible task may be within our reach. -Peter McTeer, author of Sustainability is the New Advantage McKendrick's carefully researched dive into the hidden science of direct air capture reads like a fast-paced adventure story-one with enormous implications for all of us. -Alex Hutchinson, author of Endure and columnist for Outside and the Globe and Mail Praise for The Bushman's Lair: The Bushman's Lair is a riveting, fast-paced, and suspenseful account of one of BC's most notorious and fascinating fugitives.

The deeper McKendrick digs, the stranger the truth becomes. -Grant Lawrence, CBC personality and author of Adventures in Solitude McKendrick's writing is lucid and workmanlike, and the narrative pulls you along nicely. -Douglas J.
