Storm signals : more undiplomatic diaries, 1962-1971
Ritchie, Charles
ISBN: 0771597827
Toronto Macmillan of Canada 1983
8vo hardcover 175pp index. very good / very good d/w. Book Description: In the fourth volume of selections from his delightfully wise and witty diaries, we see Charles Ritchie, the seasoned (but never stuffy) diplomat, in his last two major postings - as Canadian Ambassador to Washington and as Canadian High Commissioner to London. Full of anecdotes rather than briefing papers (was JFK really "shooing" the new Canadian ambassador out of his office?), Ritchie's diaries are at their amusing best. --This text refers to the Paperback edition. nnFrom the Back Covern "One of the best diarists who has ever touched pen to paper."n-Toronto Starnn"If Canada had produced no other writer of note, Charles Ritchie the diarist, alone, could establish our literary presence."
