Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

...must reading for anyone interested in Canadian politics and the legacy of former prime minister Pierre Trudeau in particular. Not Bad for a Sergeant touches upon many aspects of a full life. It's well written, perhaps suprisingly so for someone who has been legally blind for the last five of his 80 years.--Bill Gladstone "Canadian Jewish News "

Reseña del editor:

Barney Danson began as a twenty-one-year-old sergeant in the Canadian army and rose to the lofty heights of parliamentary secretary to Pierre Trudeau and, eventually, Minister of National Defence. In these positions, he gained insights into previously unknown facts about this remarkable prime minister, and he gives an insider's view of Canadian politicians and world leaders. Danson's own story, told in a touching and often humorous tone, is also the story of a generation of Canadians who faced the hardships of the Depression, the reality of war, and the many changes that followed.
