Sinossi
The first non-Bennett to lead BC's Social Credit Party, a former mayor of Surrey, nurseryman, husband, father, defeated Vancouver mayoralty candidate. . . As minister of Human Resources and later, of Education, he became for some the most hated man in BC. During his time as Municipal Affairs minister he was an autocrat who pushed through the development of an ultra-expensive rapid transit system.
Through extensive research and interviews with people who know Vander Zalm well, and through conversations with the former premier (1986-91) himself, Alan Twigg presents an engrossing picture of Vander Zalm from his childhood in Nazi-occupied Holland to the present.

First Edition. 0920080308 279 pages including index. Bill Vander Zalm's ascent to the premiership of British Columbia in July 1986 is one of the most remarkable political resurrections in Canadian history. Some people may have thought his political future was non-existent, and there were doubts about his chances for the Socred leadership right up to the evening of July 29, 1986. What does Bill Vander Zalm's record tell us, exactly? Pulling together much of Vander Zalm's vast public record and adding extensive new information from his friends, relatives, enemies and from the man himself, this book allows the patterns that make up the Vander Zalm enigma to be unraveled for the first time. Book clean, bright and unmarked with exception of gift inscription on flyleaf. Very light wear to glossy attractive dust jacket. Excellent copy. Codice articolo 005573
