In the Eye of the Eagle (épuisé en librairie – 5 exemplaires en stock)

Based on 240 inter­views and thou­sands of US docu­ments, this book reveals in rich detail the rela­tion­ships bet­ween American policy-makers and the Quebec natio­na­list move­ment, from John Kennedy (a pru­dent sym­pa­thi­ser) to Ronald Reagan, whose right flank enjoyed toying with Quebec sepa­ra­tism to annoy Canadian Prime minis­ter Pierre Trudeau, vie­wed as a socialist.

"A first class work by a resour­ce­ful jour­na­list… In the Eye of The Eagle is an extre­me­ly valuable book."
– Ramsay Cook, Canadian his­to­rian, The Toronto Star

"Jean-François Lisée, a for­mer cores­pondent in the U.S. capi­tal, has ope­ned up a gold mine on the Quebec‑U.S. connec­tion, one that will also delight stu­dents of Canada‑U.S. rela­tions… one of the best jour­na­lists’ books ever publi­shed in Quebec."
– Lise Bissonnette, The Globe and Mail

The French ver­sion of this book won Canada's highest lite­ra­ry award.
