Prairie Lion: The Life & Times of Ted Byfield

For more than a half-century, Ted Byfield was one of Canada’s most significant public Christians, and his life’s work included the founding of a religious order, the formation of several Christian boarding schools for boys, a series of influential newsmagazines, laying the groundwork for a political movement, writing books, and serving as editor on a magnificent 12-volume history of Christianity, The Christians: Their First Two Thousand Years. He gave voice to Western alienation when few others would, and helped create the consensus that resulted in the first Conservative majority government in decades.
