Title continues: "Number One. The Bowmanville Speech. Number Two. The London Speech. Number Three. In the House of Commons, On 3rd and 4th Nov., 1873, in Reply to Sir John A. Macdonald." Edward Blake was the second Premier of Ontario from 1871 to 1872 and leader of the Liberal Party of Canada from 1880 to 1887. He played a major role in exposing the complicity of the government of Sir John A. Macdonald in the Pacific Scandal, forcing the government's resignation. The three speeches in this booklet are typical of Burke's style, lengthy and caustic.
