Reviews

NATIONAL BESTSELLER<br><br> Peter Mansbridge reminds readers why he's one of the most respected interviewers in Canada. <br>-- Ottawa Citizen<br> <br> One on One is a wonderful journey involving key events and key players of the past 10 years. Mansbridge writes with self-deprecating, wry humour. <br> -- The Record<br> <br> Captures Mansbridge's knack for informing or enlightening, even as he jousts, or empathizes, with his subjects. On television, he makes it look effortless. The book proves it's anything but. <br> -- Winnipeg Free Press<br> <br> His solemn, thoughtful presence has been the unofficial brand of CBC News: The National for 21 years. He's pinned down world leaders on his Newsworld show for a decade.... Mansbridge's offerings are some of the best reading in the book. <br> -- Toronto Star
