Canadian-American Summit Diplomacy, 1923-1973 : Selected Speeches and Documents

This volume identifies and documents the summit meetings between Canadian Prime Ministers and US Presidents from 1923 to 1973. Cloaked in a rhetoric all their own, these meetings have become an integral part of the symbolic and decisional process between Canada and the United States. The editor has selected documents from these meetings that recreate not only the issues of concern to the two nations, but the atmosphere in which the meetings took place.
