HC Book The Making of the October Crisis D'Arcy Jenish 1st Edit Signed by Author The Making of the October Crisis: Canada's Long Nightmare of Terrorism at the Hands of the FLQ 1st Edition, published by Doubleday Canada 2018 Size 9.5'' x 6.5'' x 1.3'', weight 22 oz, 360 pages A definitive, mind-changing history of the October Crisis and the events leading up to it. The first bombs exploded in Montreal in the spring of 1963, and over the next seven years there were hundreds more bombings, many bank robberies, six murders and, in October 1970, the kidnappings of a British diplomat and a Quebec cabinet minister. The perpetrators were members of the Front de libération du Québec, dedicated to establishing a sovereign and socialist Quebec. Half a century on, we should have reached some clear understanding of what led to the October Crisis. Instead, too much attention has been paid to the Crisis and not enough to the years preceding it. Using new research and interviews, D'Arcy Jenish tells for the first time the complete story—starting from the spring of 1963. This gripping narrative by a veteran journalist and master storyteller will change forever the way we view this dark chapter in Canadian history. **** If you’re new to Poshmark - Welcome!
