This is a tasteful collection of Canadian Press photographs that chronicled the death, mourning, and funeral of former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau. I first flipped through this book a few years ago and the most poignant photo for me was one by Adrian Wyld on page 32. There, as the funeral train that carried the body of Trudeau across Eastern Ontario slowed down for crowds of mourners, a man held aloft a hockey stick that he tapped a crumpled and battered Canadian flag to in order to salute Trudeau and a new era—a new centennial for a united Canada that he had helped to usher into existence.
