Pierre Elliot Trudeau

The Fascinating Life of Canada's most Flamboyant Prime Minister

by Stan Sauerwein

Pierre Trudeau was unlike any prime minister Canada had ever known or will ever see again. His unique style, charisma, bravado, and sharp wit galvanized a nation, creating the "Trudeaumania" that swept him into office. He was a man that Canadians either loved or hated.
"To a rapt national television audience, the soft-spoken minister with the Caesar-style haircut calmly justified his bill, saying, "the State has no place in the bedrooms of the nation." This book will be especially fascinating for all readers interested in: biography, politics, or history. Pierre Trudeau was unlike any prime minister Canada had ever known or will ever see again. His unique style, charisma, bravado, and sharp wit galvanized a nation, creating the "Trudeaumania" that swept him into office. He was a man that Canadians either loved or hated.
