[Spencer Belyea · Rating 4 out of 5]

An interesting book looking at the fairly recent past of Canadian political history, but one that is very different than the political climate of today. Segal played a key role in federal politics, especially in the 80s and 90s, and this book details the various momentous occurrences - sovereignty referendums, elections, etc. - from his unique insider's perspective. I wouldn't say this book has wide appeal, as it does get into the nitty gritty of political minutiae, but if you're interested in Canadian politics, and especially understanding the era that came before this current one, I'd recommend it.

You’d have to already know about Canada and this guy to enjoy it. It says #1 national bestseller... according to who?
