Middle Power Project
«This book provokes thought. The historical research is tremendously impressive. Having perpetrated a number of books on the UN, I am ashamed of how little I knew about Canada's early role therein. I am grateful to Adam Chapnick for teaching me how, why and where Canadian influence over the UN Charter can be discerned.»
David Malone, Literary Review of Canada

«Chapnick's is a timely book ... [this] book offers an important critique of Canada's early contributions to the founding of the United Nations.»
Andrew S. Thompson, Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI), H-Net Book Review Online
«Chapnick's focus on Canada's role in the founding of the United Nations (UN) in the final years of the Second World War is both unique and extremely valuable ... This book enhances our understanding of Canada's foreign relations in this formative period ... This is an impressive book, exhaustively researched and convincingly argued. It significantly revises our understanding of Canada's role in the creation of the United Nations and it should be an indispensable resource for anyone interested in Canadian history.»
