A review by lillanaa
Extraordinary Canadians by Peter Mansbridge
5.0
This book was received as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This is one of the most general books I've read this year, and that's not a bad thing. Mansbridge goes out of his way to ensure that there's a wide variety of topics that would be important to the public, and it shows through the essays how important these people are. Definitely a good coffee table book, both interesting and heartwarming. The topics and people chosen definitely fit the Canadian identity, and I'd agree that they are heroes. They're doing great work, and their stories need to be shown.
