Lord Stanley

Résumé du livre

One of the most important figures in Canadian history, Frederick Arthur Stanley's most enduring legacy is not his term as the country's sixth Governor General but the trophy cup that bears his name. Here, Lord Stanley's political legacy -- his diplomacy in dealing with the United States, his embrace of Canada's West, and his nimble handling of domestic crises -- is explored in vivid detail, fleshing out a man who was far more than just an avid sportsman.
