Song of a nation : the untold story of Canada's national anthem / Robert Harris.

Summary:

"This biography documents the amazing and controversial short life of Calixa Lavallée - the composer of "O Canada" - and the tumult of 19th-century North America. He was a composer, a performer, an entrepreneur, and an educator; played pop and classical music; and appeared in his quasi-colonial society, tragically, just ahead of his time."-- Provided by publisher.
