The Modern Senate of Canada 1925-1963

About this book

Little is generally known about the Senate, and of what little, much is erroneous. Professor Kunz's mass of detail and factual data, along with his evaluation of second chambers and of the performance of the Canadian Senate in particular, will do much to remedy this situation.
