Description: "Walter Gordon and the Rise of Canadian Nationalism is an examination of the origins of Walter Gordon's nationalist ideology and its impact on Canada. It traces his ideas from his family influences and the intellectual currents present in his early years to his work as a chartered accountant, public servant, and head of a small conglomerate. Stephen Azzi reveals Walter Gordon to be an unlikely nationalist whose dream of a country controlled by Canadians continues to reverberate."--BOOK JACKET.
