346 pages including glossary, notes, index and black and white photographic plates. The story of a group of Canadian Army officers who volunteered to serve in the British Army in Europe between D-Day, 1944, and V-E Day, 1945, in a scheme called CANLOAN. Author was one of the participants and has based this work upon research supplemented by the recollections of survivors. A vivid account both of the experiences of the CANLOAN officers and of the scheme itself, from the initial concept to its realization. Presents slit-trench views of the battles in Normandy, Arnhem, Italy, the Rhineland and beyond the Rhine. Covers the role of the platoon commander in battle, the experiences of prisoners of war, the wounded, and the 50 Ordnance Corps volunteers who with 623 junior infantry officers made up CANLOAN. This copy appears to have come from a low circulation library, perhaps in a senior's home. Stickers have been removed from dust jacket and their former presence is nearly invisible. Otherwise, dust jacket remains very attractive and shows only light wear. Prior owner's address label and three small library stamps upon decorated front endpaper. No other markings to book which is clean and bears light wear. Blue boards decorated with gilt. A lovely copy. Book
