Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fair. 1st Edition. First edition, 1978, McClelland and Stewart, Toronto. A near fine copy in a very good dustjacket. The book itself is crisp and tight, with sharp boards, bright gilt to the spine, and clean unmarked pages. No inscriptions. No spotting. Appears little r…ead. The dustjacket is complete and not price clipped. There is light edge wear and minor rubbing at the head and foot of the spine, with slight creasing along the upper edge. A small amount of surface wear to extremities, but no significant loss. Presents very well. Peter C. Newman at full throttle. A penetrating, highly readable study of the Bronfman empire, tracing its rise from Prohibition era liquor fortunes to global corporate power. Newman combines investigative journalism with narrative flair, anatomising the personalities behind Seagram and the sprawling financial network that made the family one of the most formidable dynasties in North America. Chapters explore Sam Bronfman and the Seagram foundations, the bootlegging years along the Canadian United States border, the transition to corporate respectability, and the rivalries and ambitions of the next generation, including Charles, Edgar, Mitch and Minda. As with The Canadian Establishment, Newman dissects power with an insider's eye and an outsider's scepticism. A sharp, important work of modern Canadian business and political history, and increasingly sought after in collectible condition. "Only one book-only one family - could possibly succeed The Canadian Establishment. and three years after the publication of that sensational and controversial volume, Peter C. Newman returns with Bronfman Dynasty, the intimate story of the greatest, most powerful empire of them all. Even though its various branches control assets worth an estimated 7 billion, the Bronfman clan is constantly in flux and flight - a feuding clutch of hot head dreamers with wounded eyes and hyper egos. We meet Sam Bronfman, who, along with his brothers, laid the Seagram empire's financial foundations by supplying booze to the bootleggers who crossed the Canadian U.S. border during some of the Prohibition era's most violent encounters. Later he sought respectability by attempting to buy a seat in the Canadian senate. Today's generation is less rambunctious but no less interesting. There's Charles, the current power behind the throne, who owns a baseball team and lives in a 2-million house that has a swimming pool with a retracting roof; Edgar, the New York jet-setter, who owns Montreal's huge Place Ville Marie and much of downtown Calgary; Mitch, who lives in a restored factory on Montreal's waterfront; and Minda, the baroness, who continues to set sophisticated standards for Parisian society. Here is the Canadian book that cried out to be written: the compelling saga of Canada's wealthiest, most powerful, and secretive dynasty".

SYNOPSIS: THE DYNASTY "Except that they are almost certainly richer and without a doubt more secretive, the Bronfmans have become the Rothschilds of the New World. But unlike the European banking family, which has concentrated its wealth in metals, the Bronfman dynasty holds a commanding position in the two liquids that fuel the modern world: whisky and oil." Edgar and Sam, discussing their attempted takeover of MGM: "Tell me, Edgar, are we buying all this stock in MGM just so you can get laid?" "Oh, no, Pop. It doesn't cost $40 million to get laid." Minda (The Baroness Alain de Gunzburg), when Sam wanted to kiss the bride at her wedding: "But Father, don't you know that you should bow to a baroness?" Charles: His sweet-brown eyes reflect that quality of living at a distance from the centre of things sometimes possessed by blind folk singers, gaitered Anglican bishops, and pet reindeer. Phyllis: An intensely attractive divorcee with features that evoke the lingering beauty of a Picasso line drawing, she is seldom seen in anything except a track-layer's coveralls over a man's shirt with three large plastic peanuts pinned to the bib. Mr. Sam: His nephew, Gerald, once cautioned Mr. Sam to watch his temper or he'd get ulcers. "Listen," was the reply, "I don't get ulcers. I give them." Mitch: His office feels like the Hollywood reconstruction of 007's wintering quarters. It has nine telephones (equipped with switches, hot lines, hidden consoles) and a scattering of gadgets that include a flashlight that shoots Mace and a golden fountain pen that shoots bullets. - and - Only one book - only one family - could possibly succeed The Canadian Establishment . . . and three years after the publication of that sensational and controversial volume, Peter C. Newman returns with Bronfman Dynasty, the intimate story of the greatest, most powerful empire of them all. Even though its various branches control assets worth an estimated $7 billion, the Bronfman clan is constantly in flux and flight - a feuding clutch of hot-headed dreamers with wounded eyes and hyper egos. We meet Sam Bronfman, who, along with his brothers, laid the Seagram empire's financial foundations by supplying booze to the bootleggers who crossed the Canadian-U.S. border during some of the Prohibition era's most violent encounters. Later he sought respectability by attempting to buy a seat in the Canadian senate. Today's generation is less rambunctious but no less interesting. There's Charles, the current power behind the throne, who owns a baseball team and lives in a $2-million house that has a swimming pool with a retracting roof; Edgar, the New York jet-setter, who runs the empire from a Park Avenue office that has a Rodin nude statue of Balzac in it; Peter, the shyest billionaire in the country, who owns Montreal's huge Place Ville Marie and much of downtown Calgary; Mitch, who lives a James bond existence, hiding in his desk a special flashlight that shoots a stream of Mace at unwanted visitors. Then there is Phyllis, who lives in a restored factory on Montreal's. Size: 8vo - over 7¾".
