In 2011, Canada's New Democratic Party stunned voters with its breakthrough win to become Canada's Official Opposition. After near collapse in the 1993 election, how did this distant third-comer manage to triple the seats won by its Liberal rivals and take more than three-quarters of the ridings in Quebec? Reviving Social Democracy's early chapters - on the party's emergence in the 1960s, its presence in Quebec, and the Jack Layton factor - pave the road for insightful analyses of issues such as party modernization, changing ideology, voter profile, and policy formation that played a significant role in driving the "orange crush" phenomenon.
