Description

Please note: Laid in is a contemporary copy of a four-page House of Commons speech by Harry R. Jackman, M.P. Toronto-Rosedale, entitled "The Billion Dollar Gift to the United Kingdom", delivered March 19, 1942. The original owner of this book was clearly a keen observer of Canada's war effort. Prior owner's name inside front board. The book itself is 306 pages with index and "supplies a comprehensive account of the impact of war on a democratic country. It is an analysis of Canada's experience during the first two years of war, written be a leading economist in a manner that makes it as interesting and clear to the layman as to the specialist." - from dust jacket. Pencil markings throughout. Only moderate wear to book which remains attractive. Above-average wear and soiling to dust jacket which is now preserved in a glossy new archival-grade Brodart cover. A sound and interesting copy. Book
