Reviews
MICHAEL BLISS, author of Northern Enterprise: Five Centuries of Canadian Business:
'This is an important contribution to Canadian business history. Joy Santink strips away the myths to reveal the real Timothy Eaton -- a crust, though business genius -- and trace that the complex origin of a great Canadian retailing institution.'
