hardcover. Good. Access codes and supplements are not guaranteed with used items. May be an ex-library book.

A lovely copy dated in the year of publication and inscribed in French by the first woman prime minister of Canada on the title page and protected in an archival cover. The inscription, in English, reads: "Thank you for permitting me to communicate in both official languages." Campbell prided himself in being able to speak French.

In these frank and accessible memoirs Kim Campbell has written a book that she describes as "controversial but not scandalous, personal but not indiscreet, and acerbic but not mean-spirited." It is the story of an innovator who tried to do politics differently, but was arguably a fraction ahead of her time. SIGNED on title page without inscription.
