Don't let the size of this book scare you: it's written in a very engaging way. A solid book, full of history and put in context for the reader. The stories about Laskin J himself, however, seemed a little distant and dry, because the author did not have access to Laskin's personal writings, or because the writings available revealed little of Laskin, the man (as opposed to Laskin, the justice). At 544 pages, this is definitely not a book to read in bed. This was a perfectly serviceable biography, although I confess I enjoyed Dickson J.'s biography more. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
In <i>Bora Laskin</i>, Girard chronicles the life of a man who, at all points of his life, was a fighter for a better Canada: he fought antisemitism, corporate capital, omnipotent university boards, the Law Society of Upper Canada, and his own judicial colleagues in an effort to modernize institutions and re-shape Canadian law.
