Excerpt from Canada at War, 1914-1918: A Record of Heroism and Achievement, Including a Story of Five Cities Many books have been written about the World War, and many more are certain to be written. Each of these books must necessarily have its own particular point of view - British, French, Belgian, Russian, or American according to the nationality or situation of the writer; and, assuming always that the work is accurate and conscien tious, each should have for its readers an interest and value of its own. It is the mission of the present volume to survey the battleground of the nations from the view point of Canada, and to record the various phases of Cana dian life and thought, action and accomplishment. And it is in that regard that this volume performs a distinctive service and is entitled to an enduring place among the works of contemporary historians. All those, and they are many, who are familiar with the work of Mr. Castell Hopkins in The Canadian Annual Review, will welcome this new publication, founded upon facts gathered by him with infinite labour and pains, con tained in the Review itself, and so arranged here as to form a continuous narrative of Canada's share in the mighty struggle for the ideals of our Empire and race and the preservation of our civilization. I am confident that I voice the feeling of thousands of readers, to whom Mr. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
