Description

Press baron, entrepreneur, art collector, and wartime minister in Churchill’s cabinet, Max Aitken used to be a colonial Canadian extraordinaire. Rising from a hardscrabble childhood in New Brunswick, he changed into a millionaire at age 25, earned the title of Lord Viscount St. Albans at 38, and by age 40 used to be essentially the most influential newspaperman on the planet. Fiercely loyal to the British Empire, he used to be nevertheless patronized by London’s upper class, whose country he worked tirelessly to offer protection to all through World War II. David Adams Richards, one among Canada’s preeminent novelists, celebrates Viscount St. Albans’s heroic achievements on this perceptive interpretive biography.
