Produktbeschreibung

• First authorized bio of Bill Davis, one of Ontario's - and Canada's - most important premiers
• Author Steve Paikin is a major Canadian media figure with a specialty in Canadian politics. He will be able to promote his book on TVO and other outlets.
• Bill Davis represented Brampton and Peel as an MPP, and served longer than any other Ontario premier in the 20th century. Among his lasting achievements are the creation of Brock and Trent universities, the establishment of TVO, and the cancellation of the potentially disastrous Spadina Expressway project that would have cut downtown Toronto in half with a superhighway.
• Paikin's previous book, Paikin and the Premiers, was strongly supported by the author and TVO and sold over 4,700 copies in print
• For this book, Paikin had full access to Davis, as well as friends and colleagues
• A retrospective of Davis's record-setting time in office, gauging his influence on Ontario with the benefit of hindsight
