Socialist Cowboy is a political biography detailing the life and
activism of longtime New Democrat mpp Peter Kormos, one of the most
colourful and controversial political personalities in the history
of Ontario politics. Throughout his illustrious twenty-three-year
career as a member of the Ontario Legislature, Kormos's
unapologetic commitment to democratic socialism and his
shoot-from-the-hip brand of small-town populism won him strong
accolades back in his blue-collar hometown of Welland, while
raising eyebrows at Queen's Park and within his own party. From his
days as a student strike leader, to his short-lived time in Bob
Rae's cabinet, to his run for the Ontario ndp leadership and his
epic battles with the province's political establishment, the book
chronicles Kormos's political trajectory, through interviews and
archival research, with a view to unpacking the ideas and traits
that made him a New Democrat icon.
