    Since time immemorial, rain has defined life on Kaien Island, now known as the townsite of Prince Rupert. As the rainiest and cloudiest city in Canada, Prince Rupert is the perfect environment for rainbows—and the rainbow is an apt metaphor for the city: a symbol of diversity and inclusion, a supernatural gateway between worlds, and a universal sign of hope and calm after a storm.From its original Ts’mysen inhabitants to the first European explorers and fur traders, the building of dozens of salmon canneries to the construction of the transcontinental railway, the global upheaval of two World Wars to decades of industrial boom and bust, Kaien Island, and Prince Rupert, has always been a rich, multicultural trading hub that has weathered countless storms.By weaving together historical events illustrated by compelling archival photographs, The City of Rainbows strives to tell the story of Prince Rupert from a modern perspective, one that confronts the impact of colonization head-on and moves away from a romanticized account of the development of a “pioneer” town. Balancing the histories of Indigenous Peoples, European and Asian settlers, and recent immigrants, this book reveals powerful, intriguing, uncomfortable, and beautiful truths about an undoubtedly colourful city.

In the rich alluvial soil of the Mississippi River, the master of Arledge Hall Plantation decides expansion is in order. To raise money for more land, he sells a young slave toFive Oaks, a neighboring plantation. This act rips Thomas from his parents, Joe and Lucy, and puts members of the Banks family at odds with each other as some of them know how dangerous the Stanford's abusive overseer can be. Merciless and vindictive, the overseer is a brute who has no respect for any man, regardless of skin color, and even less respect for women.Joe and Lucy grieve the absence of their son, knowing only God alone can protect Thomas. But trying to find acceptance that the usually docile master sold their child requires a strength they're not sure they have. As they grapple with heartache, circumstances find Joe protecting a woman from the overseer's advances, and that guarantees retribution via Thomas, which forces him to escape.This creates an unimaginable domino effect of vengeance, intimidation, and eventually, murder, rending the two southern families' friendship and fracturing the budding romances between the Stanford and Banks children, although forbidden fruit tempts all the more.As a vengeful enemy continues to threaten the occupants of Arledge Hall, Joe's courageous faith shines like a beacon in a storm. But when a cruel twist of fate plays out, can the two families endure while facing the approaching threat of war?>
