Summary

Mary Majka, a Polish-Canadian immigrant, survived personal tragedy and incarceration during World War II to become a pioneer in Canada's environmental movement. She hosted a children's TV show, started the first children's nature centre in a national park, and fought to create the internationally acclaimed Mary's Point Western Hemispheric Shorebird Reserve on the Bay of Fundy. Her story has been featured on CBC television and in magazines such as Chatelaine and Harrowsmith. Sanctuary gives full expression to Mary Majka's life, her talent for storytelling, and her passionate commitment to preserving the environment for generations to come. Present-day scenes, interviews with the author, and passages of reportage engage the reader in a shared remembering -- a vivid glimpse of Mary today: aging, flawed, and feisty.
