Rezensionen / Stimmen
Malcolm MacDonald probably did more than any other statesman or politician to make the transition from colonial empire to partnership in the world of today smooth and happy [a contribution] which has not yet been fully appreciated by many historians. In this book Clyde Sanger gives us a human, enduring portrait of the man and his enormous capacity for friendship [and] for understanding many other cultures.
