Summary | "Foreign policy is a tricky business. Typically, its challenges and proposed solutions are perceived as mismatched unless a leader can amass enough support for an idea to create a consensus. Because the prime ministers are typically the ones supporting a compromise, Canadian foreign policy can be analyzed through the actions of these leaders. Statesmen, Strategists & Diplomats explores how prime ministers--from Sir John A. MacDonald to Justin Trudeau--have shaped foreign policy. This innovative focus is destined to trigger new appreciation for the formidable personal attention and acuity involved in a successful approach to external affairs."-- |
