註釋"James Hiller surveys and evaluates the political career of Robert Bond (Sir Robert from 1900) from the time of his first election in 1882. Bond resigned his seat in 1914, but remained a politically significant figure until his death. He was at the centre of political life in Newfoundland for over 30 years, and prime minister from 1900-1908. Remembered as the man who might have saved Newfoundland from the humiliation of surrendering responsible government in 1934, Bond has been described as 'Newfoundland's only statesman.' James Hiller seeks to determine whether this reputation is warranted. Rich with archival images of Robert Bond, his contemporaries, and of Newfoundland in the covered period."--
