• Summary:'The Great Canadian Art Fraud Case' takes readers back to 1962, a time when art forgeries were turning up on gallery walls, in auction houses, and (unwittingly) being hung in the homes of luminaries across Canada. Inspector James Erskine, enlisting the help of A.J. Casson, the youngest living member of the Group of Seven, set out to discover where the forgeries were coming from. 50 years later, Dellandrea follows Erskines hunt to the end, uncovering the masterminds behind the forgeries.
