New covers for Trudeau and Tupper!

Two new covers are revealed this season for books in the Prime Ministers of Canada series. These two books are biographies, short yet detailed depictions of the lives of two of our Prime Ministers. 

First of these two books is Pierre Trudeau: Child of Nature. Suspending civil liberties with the War Measures Act wasn't even Trudeau's most controversial decision, at least, not to those who are still stuttering mad about his National Energy Program or White Paper on Indian Affairs.


Second of these books is Charles Tupper: Warhorse. His influence as a cabinet minister was far greater than his brief time as prime minister, including policies that were disastrous for First Nations peoples in the Western provinces.

This series will be capped in 2025 with a collection of anecdotes of hijinks in Canadian politics, called Here's The Story. Look here for a few sharp quips along with happy tales from Hansard of soccer games between members of Parliament and the young Pages who work in the House of Commons. There are some stories here you'll never track down anywhere else.
