A Nightmare Removed: Reform and Resignation, 191616. Eclipse; Bibliography; Index 330 $aThis book is based on the public career of a highly controversial Canadian, Sam Hughes 1885?1916. He is one of the most colourful, even bizarre, figures in Canadian history. Though he died in 1921, his name can still conjure up controversy and not a little misunderstanding. His long career?in so many respects the quintessential story of a poor backwoods Ontario farm boy who made good by his own efforts?continues to exert a fascination that few other Canadian political figures could duplicate. Even though there has never been a major scholarly study of Sam Hughes, historia 410 0$aHistorical publication (Toronto, Canada) ;$vno. 21. 606 $aCabinet officers$zCanada$xBiography 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$zCanada 607 $aCanada$xPolitics and government$y1867-1914 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCabinet officers$xBiography. 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918 676 $a971.05 676 $a971.05/092 676 $a971.05/092/4 700 $aHaycock$b Ronald$01231106 712 02$aCanadian Museum of Civilization. 712 02$aCanadian War Museum. 712 02$aNational Museums of Canada. 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154969603321 996 $aSam Hughes$92858403 997 $aUNINA
