About this title

Synopsis

Three-quarters of a century after the Second World War, almost all the participants are gone. This book contains interviews with and about the Canadian generals who led the troops during that war. Edited and introduced by one of the foremost military historians of our time, this carefully curated collection brings to life the generals and their wartime experiences. The content is revealing and conversations frank. Peers and subordinates alike scrutinize key commanders of the war, sometimes offering praise but often passing harsh judgment. We learn of their failings and successes ― and of the heavy weight of command borne by all.

About the Author

J. L. Granatstein, OC, FRSC, is a Distinguished Research Professor of History Emeritus at York University.
