	William Lyon Mackenzie: Rochester Newspaper Man
		Mackenzie, at the end of a third attempt (an abortive invasion from Watertown), felt with justice that his cause needed a newspaper.

		Mackenzie never quite forgave Van Buren for his eleven months in the Monroe County jail, and the biography while not scurrilous was not intended to be flattering.

He returned to York filled with admiration of the United States and its institutions, an attitude soon supplemented by a growing dislike of Great Britain.
		Mackenzie’s new attitude was symbolized by the disappearance of “Colonial” from the title of his newspaper on 5 Dec. 1833.

		For Mackenzie was involved in a legion of enterprises across the American continent and in Europe.
		Lest the reader be intimidated by Mackenzie's superman image, the author observes that the man was not always fully in control of all situations, that at times he could be frighteningly absent minded about important details.
