CANADA'S HOUSE: Rideau Hall & the Invention of a Canadian Home (Hardcover)

Margaret MacMillan, Marjorie Harris and Anne L. Desjardins—three of the best writers in their fields—have collaborated to tell the story of how Rideau Hall has come to reflect so much that is both distinctive and excellent from across Canada. Throughout the book, Adrienne Clarkson and John Ralston Saul share their experiences in helping to bring our national house into the 21st century. Lavishly illustrated with archival and original photos, Canada’s House does the vice-regal residence justice with MacMillan’s anecdotal history, a tour of its northern-style gardens by Marjorie Harris; and Anne Desjardins’ description of the Canadian cuisine served there. BRAND NEW, never read.
