CANADIAN FORCES IN WW11 Men at Arms Series Osprey Publications By Rene Chartrand
Description
Canada was the first Commonwealth country to send troops to Britain in 1939. During 1939-45 hundreds of thousands of Canadian – more than 40 per cent of the male population between the ages of 18 and 45, and virtually all of them volunteers – enlisted. Canadians fought with tragic courage at Hong Kong and Dieppe; with growing strength and confidence in Sicily, Italy and Normandy; and finally provided an entire Army for the liberation of NW Europe. This concise account of an extraordinary national effort in the cause of freedom is supported by data tables, photos, and eight colour plates by Canada’s most knowledgeable military illustrator.
Complete details of the vital contribution of Canadian forces to World War 11
One concise volume covers all Canadian forces.
The first ever illustrated book on the subject, sees one of Osprey’s most popular Men at Arms illustrators working on his favorite subject
