Sommario/riassunto

"This study provides a meeting ground for a number of interlocking themes. In analysing Mackenzie King's treatment of the Prairies, Wardhaugh provides a comprehensive view of the process of western alienation, at the same time clarifying the differing political interests of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba."--Jacket.
