Join L. Ian MacDonald for the launch of Inside Politics at Librarie Paragraphe Bookstore in Montreal.

If journalism is the first draft of history, it's equally important to see how the work stands the test of time. If the writing isn't prescient and perspicacious, it doesn't meet that test. This collection of columns and articles by L. Ian MacDonald—a sequel to Politics, People & Potpourri—meets that test.

In his columns, and longer pieces from Policy Options and Policy magazines, MacDonald provides clear-minded commentary on political issues salient to all Canadians—including the election of Donald Trump in the United States. He also profiles a diverse group of political figures, and writes moving tributes to departed, nationally respected figures such as Jean Béliveau, Jim Flaherty, Jack Layton, and Tom Van Dusen.

L. Ian MacDonald is a columnist, author, editor, broadcaster, and public speaker. He lives in Montreal.
