At the Sharp End Volume One: Canadians Fighting the Great War 1914-1916

Description

At the Sharp End covers the harrowing early battles of World War One, when tens of thousands, then hundreds of thousands, died, before the generals and squaddies found how one can break the terrible stalemate of the front. It supplies both an intimate have a look at the Canadian men within the trenches and an authoritative account of the slow evolution in ways, weapons, and advancement. Featuring never-before-published photographs, letters, diaries, and maps, this recounting of the Great War in the course of the squaddies’ eyewitness accounts is moving and carefully engrossing. At The Sharp End is the primary comprehensive history of Canadians in World War One in 40 years. It heralds a growing interest in World War One history with a CBC documentary currently beneath development. Acclaimed Canadian actor Paul Gross is starring in a $20-million feature film to be released in summer 2007.
