About the Book

Volume three of the official history of Canada's Department of External Affairs offers readers an unparalleled look at the evolving structures underpinning Canadian foreign policy from 1968 to 1984. Using untapped archival sources and extensive interviews with top-level officials and ministers, the volume presents a frank "insider's view" of work in the Department, its key personalities, and its role in making Canada's foreign policy. In doing so, the volume presents novel perspectives on Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and the country's responses to the era's most important international challenges. These include the October Crisis of 1970, recognition of Communist China, UN peacekeeping, decolonization and the North-South dialogue, the Middle East and the Iran Hostage crisis, and the ever-dangerous Cold War.

Review :
"John Hilliker, Mary Halloran, and Greg Donaghy have produced the definitive institutional history of the Department of External Affairs during the Trudeau era.  Well written and impressively researched, it will be cited by scholars for years to come." - Adam Chapnick, Department of Defence Studies, Royal Military College of Canada "Canada's Department of External Affairs is a major contribution to historical research. The authors' scholarship is sound, the research exhaustive, and the range of sources utilized is extremely impressive. The book maintains the high quality of thoroughness of the first two volumes in the series and is a first rate contribution to our understanding of the Department of External Affairs, the Trudeau years more generally, and the evolution of Canada's foreign policy." - David MacKenzie, Department of History, Ryerson University "Offering the most comprehensive account of this era in the [Department of External Affairs'] history, and written for historians and students of Canadian international relations, Innovations and Adaptation will be a trusted companion to both policy-makers and policy enthusiasts for years to come." - Ryan M. Touhey, University of Waterloo (The Canadian Historical Review vol. 99 no. 3, 2018) "…an indispensable source for scholars of Canadian foreign relations for years to come." - Kevin Brushett, Royal Military College of Canada (British Journal of Canadian Studies, vol 31 no 2)
