Summary:
A follow-up to his memoir The Premiers Joey and Frank. Author Bill Rowe delivers a spirited account of the next three premiers of Newfoundland and Labrador:
Brian
Peckford, Clyde Wells, and
Brian
Tobin
. Bill Rowe, as leader of the Liberal Party of Newfoundland and Labrador and, later, host of VOCM Open Line, observed the rise of these three premiers and the shape our province took while under their care. A rousing and often laugh-out-loud political tale. Born in Newfoundland, Bill Rowe was elected five times to the House of Assembly. He served as a minister in the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador and as leader of the Official Opposition. He practised law in St. John's for many years and has been a long-time public affairs commentator, appearing regularly on national and local television, as well as hosting a daily radio call-in show on VOCM and writing weekly newspaper columns. Rowe has written ten books: Clapp's Rock, a novel, The Temptation of Victor Galanti, a second novel, a volume of essays on politics, the political memoir Danny Williams: The War With Ottawa, Danny Williams, Please Come Back, a collection of newspaper articles covering social, political, and economic issues, Rosie O'Dell, a crime novel, The Premiers Joey and Frank, The Monster of Twenty Mile Pond, a novel of a legendary monster who engulfed the lives of two teenaged girls, and The True Confessions of a Badly Misunderstood Dog, a fictionalized account of the frantic years when a Labrador retriever and two cats lived with the author's family.
