Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. Clean, tight copy which "brings together moving first-hand accounts of Canadians in the First World War, the Second World War, and Korea. Readers will feel the pain of saying goodbye to the family at home, the uncertainty of sailing off to foreign shores; the terror of fighting those first bloody battles; and the thrill - finally - of victory, demobilization, and homecoming. This unforgettable volume also contains recollections from the wives and sweethearts left at home - the heartaches, the terrible waiting, and the nightmares about the dreaded telegram - as well as accounts of the lighter side of military life - the paperwork, the paraphernalia, the rigmarole, and the general lunacy of bureaucracy running amok. This anthology of true war stories from the pages of Legion Magazine is a moving testament to the enduring spirit and incredible courage of all those Canadians whose lives have been touched by war." Originally published 1986, this copy is the 1st edition, 3rd printing (1989).
