Adrian Raeside joins me now. He’s a veteran editorial cartoonist, and we’ll talk about his new book, No Sailing Waits and Other Ferry Tales: 30 Years of BC Ferries Cartoons. These cartoons have appeared in numerous publications, chiefly the Victoria Times Colonist. The book is already a bestseller, and it’s humorous and a great piece of social history about British Columbia, our ferries, and the distance bridged between Vancouver Island and the Mainland. Harbour Publishing publishes the book. The website for more is at www.raesidecartoon.com. Please welcome to the Planta: On the Line program, Adrian Raeside; Mr. Raeside, good morning.
