About the Book

Originally published in 1993, The Generals has received resounding praise for its relevance, depth, and scholarship. A detailed account of Canada's military at a crucial time in history, the book focuses on the personalities, politics, and pressures that defined Canada's involvement in the Second World War. By examining closely the remarkable individuals who fought, and won, the Second World War, this book will once again give Canadians an objective, unfiltered look at our leadership during this vital period in our military history. The only book of its kind on this subject, The Generals remains an invaluable resource for academics, policy makers, and anyone interested Canadaís military history. Features a new preface by Dr. David J. Bercuson, Director of the Center for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary.
