About the book

Used book. Hardcover. Dust jacket included. Good condition

The Canadian contribution to victory in the Second World War is a legacy of which Canadians are proud. But time passes; the details of that era grow dim, and individual stories nned to be saved for future generations Voices of a War Remembered is a collection of these stoires.

CBC radio broadcaster Bill McNeil has interviewed a wide range of Canadian men and women – service personnel, war correspondents, photographers, pilots, medical personnel, and the workers, wives and families who waited at home – and brought these interviews together to provide a rich remembrance of all aspects of Canadian life during the war years. Their moving and often humorous stories illustrate how Canadians managed to survive the war with courage and determination. The timeless document of an historic era will touch those who lived through those years, and will be of interest to social historians as well.
