Islands of Resistance wins Monday Magazine M Award

Islands of Resistance: Pirate Radion In Canada, the first book about pirate radio in Canada, won a 2010 Monday Magazine M Award for best local non-fiction. The M Awards recognize Victoria’s visual, literary and performing artists and are now in their ninth year.

What Monday Magazine had to say about the win:

“While there were a lot of close races in the M Awards this year, this was one of the few where the winner was clear right out of the starting gate. It seems this book documenting the history of pirate radio in the Great White North really captured the attention of M Awards voters this year —and, given that it’s the first book to do so, we’d say it’s deserving of the support.”
