Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Life and Work of the Sir John Thompson, John Prime Minister of Canada
That a record, a description, of his career should be given to his country and to the world, is a matter not merely of appropriateness but of obligation; for the vari ous grounds upon which a claim for a biography of any person may be made on behalf of the public, are in this case combined, whether regarded from the historical, the political, the legal, the exemplary, or the personal point of view.'
