| Abstract | One of Canada's best-known national symbols, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police underwent enormous transformation between 1914 and 1939. Exploring the RCMP in the context of its ordinary policing role, this book demonstrates how much of the impetus behind the RCMP's transformation was ensuring its own survival and continued relevance. |
