An excellent political history of the Parti Québécois, and an excellent biography of one of Canada's most interesting politicians. The book does the remarkable feat of including intense nuance and detail about important events from Levesque's time as premier, most notably the referendum on sovereignty-association, while also placing those events into a greater Québécois and Canadian context. Well worth the read.
