Huffingtonpost Canada is proud to be a new sponsor of the prestigious Charles Taylor Prize for Literary Non-Fiction. Our readers can look forward to reading an excerpt from each of the five finalists, personally chosen by the authors themselves. After all the excerpts have run, Huffpost readers will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite book in advance of the prize winner being announced on March 5 -- an event which we will livestream.
You can read the first excerpt, from Andrew Westoll's "The Chimps of Fauna Sanctuary."
The next excerpt, from Charlotte Gill's Eating Dirt, will be posted this Thursday.
Keep watching this spot for news of the others, and information on when it's time to vote!
Find out more about the nominees.
