Summary:
When Canada's bare-bones military entered World War II, it consisted of 4,000 soldiers-- including 450 officers. Six years later, Canada was the world's biggest per-capita contributor of soldiers to the war, with 700,000 men commanded by 68 generals. The Generals, written by one of Canada's leading military historians, Jack Granatstein, tells these generals' stories, warts and all.
