“We have not abandoned each other, because we love each other.”

Those words were spoken by a young French woman to a Nazi interrogator in Berlin, 1943. She was accused of a crime without a law: she was a lesbian.

I Will Not Abandon You: Queer Women in Nazi Germany by Samuel Clowes Huneke recovers her story and dozens more — drawn from over fifty archival files, many never before examined — to tell the hidden history of queer women under fascism.

This is a history of surveillance, harassment, imprisonment, and loss. But it is also a history of women who refused to abandon their partners under impossible pressure, of solidarity forged across lines of class, race, and sexuality in the darkest of times.

Rigorous, compassionate, and compellingly written, I Will Not Abandon You challenges what we think we know about the resilience of those history has tried to forget.

We're at a pivotal moment for Canada's public service.

A new generation of leaders is stepping up - more diverse, more values-driven, more impatient for change - while seasoned leaders carry the weight of systems under unprecedented strain. The demands on everyone have never been greater, and the environment requires more than technical competence: it demands emotional intelligence, political acumen, ethical courage, and the resilience to lead under constant pressure.

Northern Grit was written for this moment. Grounded in real interviews with public sector leaders across federal, provincial, and municipal government, these fictionalized stories cover everything from speaking truth to power and navigating political acumen, to advocating for inclusion, managing conflict, and leading through crisis with honesty, warmth, and deep respect for the people who choose to serve.

Whether you're just starting out or navigating the complexity of senior leadership, this book will challenge you, validate you, and remind you: you are not alone in this work.
