Already a successful lawyer when he was elected to the Nova Scotia Assembly in 1826, Murdoch lost his seat in 1830. A graceful essayist, widely published in leading journals of the time, he also wrote more substantial works, the most important of which is his Epitome ofthe Laws of Nova Scotia (1832-33), a unique work which earned him fame as "Nova Scotia's Blackstone" and which is still a primary source for historians. Murdoch returned to public life in 1841 when he was appointed clerk of the Board of Education where he laboured tirelessly to establish a uniform provincial school system. Appointed recorder of Halifax in 1852, he retiredin 1860, after which he published his History of Nova Scotia (1865-67)." - TheCanadianEncyclopedia.com.

BAKER, John Alexander. MONROE, Marilyn My Day with Marilyn.
2006, ISBN:9781411683723
BAKER, John Alexander. My Day with Marilyn. N.pl.: n.pub., (2006). First Paperback Edition. Pp (17),1-91. 8vo, illustrated blue cloth. "A man tells the story of an incredible experience in his life . How he met a paranoid, schizophrenic woman in 1984 who claimed, very convincingly, to be the real Norma Jeane Baker or Marilyn Monroe. She had the looks, the duo personalities, the singing voice, the mole on her cheek, in just the right spot and the astounding knowledge of the life of Marilyn Monroe. This woman seems to have all the answers of what really happened and how it was covered up. How she escaped from her would be killers and was put away in an institution for the next 20 years and then, finally released to become a frightened, helpless, homeless drifter. The last days surrounding Marilyn Monroe's life is shrouded in mystery. It is perhaps one of the biggest mysteries of the twentieth century. Missing reports. Missing red diary. There were missing phone records, missing autopsy samples that were sent to the lab for further examination and disappeared. There is the Government's refusal to open up the case again to a full inquiry, with new evidence and new autopsy tests, with new and modern methods. While skeptism is healthy, too much makes one completely narrow minded. Anyone having a healthy balance of skepticism and naiveté may appreciate her story. John Alenander Baker is a writer/actor based in Halifax, Nova Scotia." - from the back cover. Very good. Signed by the author. 20.00
