The other side of Mowat's passionate Canadian nationalism was passionate anti-Americanism. It didn't flatter him.
His intellectual reach was like the River Platte -- a mile wide and an inch deep -- and couldn't penetrate the thinnest of veneers: Soviet Potemkin. His glowing description Siberia is embarrassing for its naivety.
I'd recommend his book "The boat that wouldn't float." It's amusing.
R.I.P. Farley, now that you're leaving us in peace.
