A charming and insightful read on an apocryphal character and unique moment in BC's history. For at least one of the authors - Geoff Meggs, long-time
A charming and insightful read on an apocryphal character and unique moment in BC's history. For at least one of the authors - Geoff Meggs, long-time NDP and left insider within BC - this book could have been a straightforward political advertisement for a longtime left standard-bearer in the province. But as I turned the pages of this extremely readable and at times downright fun political history, I found myself grappling, as I suspect Meggs and Mickleburgh did, with the range of mistakes and the wins that this young, forward-looking, and doggedly progressive government wrought. On the whole, I found Meggs and Mickleburgh's characterization of not only Barrett, but his entire team as reasonable. Their sympathies for BC's first-ever progressive government are clear, but no one ever got an overtly elegiac treatment in my eyes. My only meaningful critique - which may be more personal than systemic - is that I felt the book could have contextualized more of the transitions happening during the 1970s with reference to its own period of authorship. The context of BC felt murky at times and, especially as the book brought in truly fascinating references to Barron's articles and CIA-snooping, a little better positioning of what BC was, what it was becoming, and what it became, could have been helpful. I was grateful to receive this as a gift and hope to share it with others in the future, too.
