A Lonely Eminence is the second of two volumes tracing the public life and times of Clifford Sifton, one of Canada?s most controversial politicians. Volume II examines Sifton?s life and work in the twentieth century, especially his political activities. Sifton?s involvement in the early administration of the Yukon Territory is analyzed, as is his concern for a rational, all-Canadian transportation policy and his role in railway development in the west.
Volume II of Clifford Sifton, like Volume I, is rich in historical detail and is the result of extensive research into original historical sources. The vitality and significance of Sifton?s public and political career emerge from this political biography, which will be of interest to Canadian historians and political scientists, as well as to anyone interested in the growth and development of Canada.
