520 | . | ‡a"The second volume of historian Tim Cook's account of Canadians fighting in the Second World War, the follow-up to The Necessary War. The author combines an extraordinary grasp of military strategy with a deep empathy for the soldiers on the ground, at sea and in the air. Whether it's a minute-by-minute account of a gruelling artillery battle, vicious infighting among generals, the scene inside a medical unit, or the small details of a soldier's daily life, Cook creates a compelling narrative. He recounts in mesmerizing detail how the Canadian forces figured in the Allied bombing of Germany, the D-Day landing at Juno beach, the taking of Caen, and the drive south. Featuring dozens of black-and-white photographs and moving excerpts from letters and diaries of servicemen, the story of the Canadians who fought abroad and of the home front that was changed forever"--Provided by publisher. | |
