About the book

Trudeaumania is about Pierre Trudeau's rise to power in 1968. This is a story we thought we knew - the epic saga of the hipster Montrealer who drove up to Ottawa in his Mercedes in 1965, wowed the country with his dictum that "the state has no business in the bedrooms of the nation," rocked the new medium of television like no one since JFK, and in scant months rode the crest of Canadians' centennial-era euphoria into power. This is Canada's own Camelot myth. It embodies the quirkiness, the passion, and the youthful exuberance we ascribe to the 1960s even now. Many of us cherish it.
