Served in France/Flanders with 3rd canadian Div. from Oct. 1915: Ypres salient/Mount Sorrel, The Somme, Vimy, Passchendaele & 1918 battles. "A comprehensive & intimate account of the Bn's services on the Western Front, with many members mentioned by name & eyewitness accounts woven in. The author covers periods of front-line combat & behind-the-lines rest & recovery equally well... The book is attractive to handle, the maps are very good & the nominal roll exceptionally useful." - Perkins (although he laments the lack of an index). Orig. red cloth, gilt, VG.
