Irene Bairds Waste Heritage is a groundbreaking work of Canadian fiction based on the dramatic and violent labour disputes that took place in British Columbia in 1938. The story follows the progress of two friends, Matt Striker, a 23yearold from Saskatchewan, and his simpleminded companion Eddy, as they travel from Vancouver to Victoria following the occupation of the Vancouver Post Office. Like the unemployed masses that took siege of the Post Office, Matt and Eddy yearn for relief after years of economic depression. Empathetic and tragic, Waste Heritage has been praised as Canadas Grapes of Wrath and the most important Canadian novel of the 1930s.A new critical apparatus surrounds Bairds original text, informing the reader of the historical and literary contexts of the work, as well as providing exhaustive textual analysis.
