This Volume: The Sea Is at Our Gates: The History of the Canadian Navy is a valuable addition to Canada's maritime and military literature. The Sea Is At Our Gates recounts, for the first time, the story of Canada's navy, gale-driven and becalmed, from its colonial roots through the twentieth-century war to the close of the Cold War era in 1990.
