Description:
Toronto: Key Porter Books, 1993 'Bagman' is about ordinary men and women and a crooked system. " No one ever played Nova Scotia's brutal, bare-knuckle game of politics better than Tory bagman Donald Ripley. Even though it nearly destroyed him, he has survived to mortify the mighty and entertain the rest of us." (said by Stevie Cameron). This book may help show the public that politicians are like those who elect them: imperfect, greedy, sad, sometimes even lovable, but never dull. The contents provide a prologue, Part 1....The Stanfield and Regan Years, 1956-1979 (10 chapters), Part 2....Buchanan Ascendant 1978-1984 (8 chapters), Part 3....Buchanan In Decline 1984-1990 (12 chapters). Repleat with index. Name to ffep. A nice bright book in a photo, price-intact dust jacket.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine.

Description:
Jacket shows wear to extremities. Bluenose. A ship loved, lost and reborn. Here is how the saltbank Schooner sailed her way to fame, bringing glory to her home port of Lunenburg, N.S., how she raced into people's heart; how she became the only ship in modern history to emblazon a nation's coinage. Lavishly illustrated with photographs, including a portfolio drawn from the files of the late W.R. MacAskill, surely the greatest marine photographer of them all.This is the tale of a ship and her exploits and triumphs that took her to greatness and the men who planned her, who built her and sailed her. The book was dedicated to Colonel Sidney C. Oland. Introduction by Jack Brayley. What a wonderful body of work!
