Descrizione

580 + 755 pages. Index and black and white photographic plates in each volume. "An unflinching and utterly frank insider's account of the triumph and tragedy of the Diefenbaker years" - from dust jacket. Fleming was Diefenbaker's "indispensable" Minister of Finance. Here, he describes in searching detail the cut and thrust of government in the forties, fifties, and sixties, illuminating the careers of King, St. Laurent, Pearson, Kennedy, and the Chief himself. Those interested in the demise of the Avro Arrow (CF-105) will be particularly interested in Fleming's recollection of what led to that fateful decision - and its aftermath. Dedication bookplate upon front free endpaper of each volume, otherwise books clean and unmarked with light wear. Light wear to dust jackets, now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart. A quality set. Spadoni & Donnelly 3613 & 3614 Book
