Portraits From a Life

| Abstract |
Heward Grafftey was a Member of Parliament for eighteen years, first elected in 1958 when he was thirty years old. For much of that time, he was the only Conservative M.P. representing a Quebec riding (Brome-Mississquoi). He was Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Finance in 1962, and in 1979 he became Secretary of State for social programs and Minister of Science and Technology in the Joe Clark government. This autobiography includes a description of the author’s childhood growing up in English Montreal in the 1930s and 1940s. It also contains a chapter on his cousin, the Montreal painter Prudence Heward (1896-1947).
