Synopsis

Experience the LeBreton Gallery, the Canadian War Museum's superb collection of military artifacts. Get an up-close view of imposing tanks, artillery and other tools of war, and learn about the military technology used by and against Canadians in times of peace and conflict.

This souvenir catalogue presents a wide variety of vehicles and equipment used in warfare over the past 300 years, such as a Voodoo fighter jet, nineteenth-century artillery pieces, tanks, and other vehicles drawn from one of the most extensive collections of its kind in the world. Each tells something about the human ingenuity and intent in their creation and use, and the human experience of facing them.
