A chronicle of Pierre Elliot Trudeau’s first term as prime minister and the attempt to bridge one of Canada’s classic political fault lines. Trudeau appeared to enjoy the encounter. He stood his ground while escaping projectiles, including a tomato . . . In this insightful and lively history, Liberal insider Darryl Raymaker recalls the attempt to broker “a marriage from hell” between the federal Liberal Party and Alberta’s Social Credit government in the late 1960s. Raymaker uses his deep connections and backroom knowledge to trace the tangled political relationships that developed when charismatic statesman Pierre Trudeau confronted the forces of oil and agriculture in Canada’s west. Part memoir, part chronicle, Trudeau’s Tango provides a window into Canadian history, politics, economics and the zeitgeist of the late 1960s. “Trudeau’s Tango is part memoir, part documentary of the geographic, cultural and political divisions that are a permanent fixture of Confederation. The fact we held it together remains a world-class achievement. . . . Compelling reading for any Canada 150 book club . . . A fresh and lively account of politics with sharp elbows.” —Holly Doan, Blacklock’s Reporter “An excellent book about Alberta and the Trudeaus.” —Warren Kinsella, HuffPost “[Raymaker’s] book recalls a tumultuous political era with wry humour and a touch of anger.” —Frank Dabbs, Alberta Views “A detailed chronology of the history and tangled political relationships of the Liberal Party at the national and provincial levels and its opponents in Alberta—the once dominant Social Credit Party and then the Progressive Conservatives—from December 1967 through November 1972. The account is filled with blow-by-blow descriptions of political events and encounters at the provincial level. . . . Recommended.” —G.A. McBeath, CHOICEMagazine

"After the briefest of honeymoons in 1968, Pierre Trudeau's government clashed with Alberta's conservative interests, generating antagonism that persists to this day. Trudeau's Tango, an insightful personal history, traces the tangled political relationships that developed when the charismatic statesman confronted the forces of oil and agriculture in Canada's West. Liberal insider Darryl Raymaker recounts an attempt to broker 'a marriage from hell' between the federal Liberal Party and Alberta's Social Credit government. The failure of this union is one of the reasons why the Liberals continue to struggle for favour in Alberta. Part memoir, part chronicle, Trudeau's Tango is a timely book on a provocative matter, perfect for anyone interested in Canadian history, politics, economics, or the Canadian zeitgeist of the late 1960s."--

I "Reagans sidste tango" beretter Jens Nauntofte om, hvordan den tidligere skuespiller, forretningsmand og meddeler for FBI Ronald Reagan under sit embede som præsident for USA håndterede de mange kriser i Mellemøsten, der blev centrale for hans tid i Det hvide hus. Nauntofte trækker på sin egen erfaring som korrespondent for Danmarks Radio og Dagbladet Information, når han fortæller om CIA’s forsøg på at likvidere oberst Kaddafi i Libyen, kidnapningen af CIA-chefen William Francis Buckley, hvordan en spion for Israel stjal 850.000 sider hemmelige akter fra USA og mange andre spændende historier, der fandt sted under Reagans præsidentembede. Da bogen blev udgivet i 1987 var den naturligvis højaktuel i sine temaer, men stadig i dag bidrager Jens Nauntoftes betragtninger med viden og vinkler på en evig aktuel konflikt samt amerikanske actioner i international politik. Siden 1961 har Jens Nauntofte arbejdet som korrespondent og journalist med speciale i Mellemøsten for Dagbladet Information og Danmarks Radio. I 1971 skrev han første bog i en lang serie af bøger om de forskellige kriser og politiske forhold, som han var vidne til under sine udstationeringer til verdens brændpunkter. Siden da er det blevet til 14 bøger om blandt andet Israel, Mellemøsten, Vietnam, USA og Tyskland.
