Pierre Berton

by A. B. McKillop

"Pierre Berion was a giant, a man known to virtually every Canadian. For many, he was not only an eminent journalist and storyteller, but also the man who defined their views on their country and on themselves. Now, award-winning author A. B. MeKillop brings us the first biography of this extraordinary man, from his birth in 1920 into modest beginnings in Whitehorse through his ascent to the status of cultural brand and national icon."--BOOK JACKET.
