Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good+. First Edition; First Printing. Tight clean book with light dust spotting to top edge; in bright dust jacket with light shelfwear; 410 pages; This regimental history chronicles the Cape Breton Highlanders (CBH) , a Canadian infantry regiment from Cape Breton Isl…and, Nova Scotia, with roots in local militia units.

Key campaigns detailed include: The Italian Campaign (from 1943â"1944) , with battles around Monte Cassino, the Gothic Line, Coriano Ridge, and crossings of rivers like the Melfa and Lamone. Transfer to Northwest Europe (Holland/Belgium/Germany theater in 1945) , contributing to the final Allied push. Post-war demobilization in 1946. (Grok) The book emphasizes the regiment's gallantry (evidenced by battle honours and decorations) , the soldiers' Cape Breton Scottish heritage, resilience in harsh conditions, and insights into the island's society that produced these troops. It blends operational narratives with personal anecdotes, making it valuable for Canadian military history enthusiasts.
