F.R. Scott is one of the most remarkable Canadians of his
generation. His is a poet - most notably a satirical one - whose
anger and impudence have for forty years deflated the pompous,
shocked the complacent, and castigated the greedy. He is a lawyer
who has vigorously opposed censorship and defended civil rights,
and whose knowledge of the law is equalled by his passion for
justice; and he is a political and social philosopher who helped
form the CCF and New Democratic Parties, and who is now a member of
the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism. Readers who
have been moved and entertained by his poetry in previous books and
in innumerable journals will welcome this bringing together of his
best work in one volume. Readers new to his work (if there are any
in Canada) will discover a rare combination of wit, intellect, and
compassion - 'an informed mind perfectly co-ordinated with a
civilized heart.'
