Commissions High: Canada in London, 1870-1971

By Roy MacLaren

This is an account of the work of the Canadian High Commission from 1870 until Britain's entry into the European Common Market 100 years later. MacLaren argues that, until the defeat of Diefenbaker in 1963, there was tension between the forces of imperial (later commonwealth) solidarity and those of localised nationalism.
