Description
Incisive, droll, biting, hilarious - Allan Fotheringham has been dissecting politics, people and events on the back page of Maclean`s for 25 years. In that time he has attracted legions of devoted readers who turn to the last page first, anxious for their weekly infusion of the inimitable and frequently irascible Dr. Foth. Last Page First provides a fascinating snapshot of our country and our world during the most tumultuous time in our history, and a rare look of one of the country`s finest journalists. Allan Fotheringham reflects on the last thirty years of his "misspent" career as journalist, and selects what he considers to be his finest columns. Countered with new candid commentary that is quintessential Fotheringham, and a veritable rogue`s gallery of Peterson cartoons, Last Page First will entertain Canadians coast to coast. The original 1999 hardcover edition is no longer available.
