SIGNED BY PETER NEWMAN on title page; age-tanned some light rubbing to covers; wear to upper inside corner and bottom edge of front cover; light crease to bottom front edge; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; This volume continues the fascinating account of Canadian politics of the 1960s begun by Peter C. Newman in Renegade in Power. Newman's skilful selection of evidence, his grasp of personality, and the flair and pace of his writing style brought the disparate events of that turbulent era. Newman expertly portrays the abortive admirals' revolt, the flag debate, Gordon's first budget, the furniture scandals, the Rivard case, and the Munsinger affair. Distemper of Our Times remains an evocative portrait, perhaps even more valuable today than when it first became a bestseller in 1968.
