Spanning a century and a half, Great Canadian Speeches includes over thirty important and inspiring addresses by some of the country's finest orators, from John A. Macdonald's impassioned promotion of Confederation to the installation of Adrienne Clarkson, the first Governor General to have arrived in the country as a refugee. More than a history book or work of reference it features the skillful use of words conveying visions, beliefs and aspirations and brings to life the pivotal moments in the history of Canada as a nation.
