Reviews
“[M]asterful biography…Friedland deftly weaves an account of Kennedy’s complex life with great insight and scholarship.” -- Bob Rae * <em>Canada’s History</em> * “[F]ascinating new biography… Friedland’s biography provides a meticulously researched evaluation of a man keen to obscure and rewrite his own past. Despite these challenges, Friedland succeeds in providing a vivid portrait of WPM Kennedy that places him in the context of his wider contribution to Canadian society.” -- Thomas Mohr * <em>Dublin University Law Journal</em> * “The book is skillfully written and very accessible. In fact, it is a real page turner in places….” -- Dr. Peter Ludlow, President-General of the Canadian Catholic Historical Association * <em>Maritime Institute for Civil Society</em> * “W.P.M. Kennedy is one of the most important Canadian legal figures that most Canadian legal academics have not heard of…Friedland deploys all his experience, ingenuity, and investigative skills to complete his ‘search for truth about the life of W.P.M. Kennedy.’” -- Adam M. Dodek * <em>American Journal of Comparative Law</em> *
