First Across the Continent: Sir Alexander Mackenzie door Barry Gough
This is a short but well done biography of Mackenzie, who while best known for his two treks across Canada was also a major player in the fur business. Highly recommended.
They did fight, in a gentlemanly and scholarly fashion. Marder, an American and an academic seems the nicer man. Captain Roskill had been a WWII commander of a light cruiser, and had been in battles. Roskill, author of the WWII British Naval official history was self taught, and somewhat lacking in vocabulary and fluency when he started the historical stage of his career. But was time went on he learned his trade. Arthur Marder began with a detailed history of the British navy in WWI and was an academic with no field experience. Their differences were in the area of inter-war naval policy and the early stages of WWII at sea.
Both men should be read as part of an education about the Twentieth century British Navy. Mr. Gough, a Canadian, gives what I believe is an-even-handed and clear explanation of the discussions.… (meer)

The photos are good in this battle history of one of Canada's WWII Tribal Class destroyers. A must-read for our naval buffs! there is an appendix on the other Tribals and their records, as well as a good plan, but there are several errors. The Haida fought one battle coupled with HMS Laforey, not Coforay, and there is an error in the gunnery information. Also the Haida is currently on display in Hamilton, Ontario, not Toronto. She has been moved.
