This is a lively account of Canada's WWII army, which conducted some very difficult operations in the face of severe resistance. There is a clear review of Canadian army command politics, and a good set of quotations on the more difficult passages in the war from a Canadian point of view. A good book with a useful bibliography for further studies of a interesting and highly respected force. The maps are not as good as the text. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
This is the story of the Canadian First Army that fought its way from Juno Beach to D-Day in June, 1944, through Normandy, into the Netherlands to liberate that country, to the terrible battles in the Scheldt area, and finally into Germany in 1945. The argument of this book is that the Canadian army changed from an amateur force in 1939-41 into the supremely skilled and formidably equipped army by late 1944 that was able to prevail against a first-class enemy. In fact, the citizen soldiers became professionals, able to organize and plan, to move and fight, and to win. Print run 8,000. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
