Canadians: Biographies of a Nation (West) (The)

Four distinguished but little-known Canadians are profiled in this series of biographies. Artist Robert Markle emerged as an exceptional painting teacher in the 1960s; Marion de Chastelain shuttled vital enemy secrets during World War II; Fred Rose was a labour activist and MP who battled anti-semitism in the 1940s; Czech-born actor and filmmaker Vladimir Valenta survived six political regimes – and one Oscar-winning film. All four profiles provide intimate glimpses into noteworthy but often unheralded lives.
