Promotional Information

'Hazel McCallion, the unchallenged mayor of Mississauga for thirty years, is of national renown and Tom Urbaniak's deft political biography uncovers an enigmatic figure. Her Worship is a surprising and fascinating book.' -- John Sewell, former mayor of Toronto and author of Shape of the City and Shape of the Suburbs 'Tom Urbaniak has produced an engaging and enjoyable book that will appeal to anybody interested in the development of Mississauga and the career of Mayor McCallion. Her Worship adds to our understanding of municipal politics in Canada, about which too little is written and published.' -- Neil Thomlinson, Department of Politics and Public Administration, Ryerson University 'Tom Urbaniak has done an excellent job in researching the material for this book. It captures the essence of Mayor Hazel McCallion from her days as head of government in Streetsville and now, for a very long time, as the Mayor of Mississauga. Her Worship accurately represents the contribution she has made and makes it clear that Hazel is a leader among heads of municipal governments in this country.' -- The Honourable William G. Davis, P.C., C.C., Q.C., former premier of Ontario 'Her Worship is an encyclopedic story of the development of Mississauga and a masterful interweaving of research and observation. Even though Hazel McCallion has been known to incite strong feelings in observers this book is neither a polemic nor a paean of praise as these works can sometimes be. Tom Urbaniak has done a good job of telling McCallion's and Mississauga's stories in a balanced and even-handed way. He has produced a piece of solid and serious work that is at the same time a good read.' -- David Siegel, Department of Political Science, Brock University
