NEW RELEASE! In Max and Monique Nemni’s third and final volume of their Pierre Elliott Trudeau biography, the man who would be statesman is granted his life’s wish. In this meticulously researched and argued political biography, Pierre Trudeau is seen wrestling with the most difficult — and momentous — decisions of his career. In his fifteen years as prime minister of Canada, Trudeau oversaw the controversial White Paper of 1969 on Indigenous policy, the fateful October Crisis of 1970, and the repatriation of the Canadian Constitution together with a Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Loved and hated in almost equal measure, Trudeau was an iconoclast, shaking up Canada’s two solitudes as no other prime minister has ever dared to do.

"The Empress of Asia’s First and Second World War experiences bookend the history of a peacetime passenger liner, one that through the 1920s and ‘30s touched thousands of lives, including those who stoked her fires, fought through storms from the bridge, or vacationed to distant lands. Her history also embraces the people who built her, from designers and engineers to platers, heater-boys, riveters, electricians, plumbers, and upholsterers. So for Fourth Officer Walter Oliver she was more than the dark seawater sloshing over worn rivets, gutted cabins, and coal-fired furnaces; she embodied the passage of people and time, not only through war and peace but across social class, race, business, and politics as well." OCEANS OF FATE by Dan Black explores the incredible history of the steamship Empress of Asia, and its dramatic time sailing the world.
