An economic-political history of Quebec, important for understanding the culture and its justified grievances against English Canada circa 1970 and beyond.

Political history of Quebec c1970. Accurate, but crudely sketched.

Dictionaries are never very readable, but this book was a useful and much-appreciated guide for a new immigrant.

This is a good, short view of Quebec history from the point of view of a separatist in the 1970s. It is a bit of (though not a big) eye-opener that defends a more radical Jacques Parizeau-style of truly independent Quebec, and in that sense it is a gratifying read for the anglo Canadian.
I would be curious to see what the author's more recent views on the subject are, and will look them up.
