The development of Montreal's municipal administration has remained largely unexamined. In Des pouvoirs et des hommes Michèle Dagenais takes a close look at the transformation on municipal administration in the first half of the twentieth century, painting a vivid picture of political patronage and of the strong personalities in Montreal civic government during the reign of the legendary Camillien Houde and against the backdrop of the Great Depression.
