ISBN:  9780773541160 (hc.) Description:  644 p. ; 25 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "Editor and publisher, workaholic and romantic, idealist and pioneer, Lorne Pierce once described his editorial desk as "an altar at which I serve - the entire cultural life of Canada." Pierce laboured at his altar between 1920 and 1960 as the driving force behind Ryerson Press, the leading publisher of Canadian works during the mid-twentieth century. In Both Hands, Sandra Campbell captures the inimitable cultural role of a remarkable man whose work paved the way for the creation of a national identity."--Back cover. Genre:  Biographies.
