Description: Toronto: James Lorimer & Company Ltd, Publishers, 2011. First English Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 1552779041. "Adrien Arcand and his party were a significant part of the political scene through most of the 1930s. He adopted Nazi symbols and eagerly voiced anti-Semitic views. He organized large and successful rallies of his right-wing supporters under the sign of the swastika. He and his party enoyed the support of a substantial and committed group of Canadians. Imprisoned for his political views during WWII, he later resumed his activities as leader of the far-right National Unity Party, and forged ties to Quebec's provincial government of Maurice Duplessis. He played an important role in the country's political life for many years. This fascinating biography sheds light on a man and an era that have been hidden in the shadows for too long." - dust jacket. Ernst Zündel credited Arcand with inspiring his activism.
