The eighth Canadian Battle Series volume is the little-told story of the tense final days of World War II, remembered in the Netherlands as “the sweetest of springs,” which saw the country’s liberation from German occupation.
The Liberation Campaign, a series of fierce, desperate battles during the last three months of the war, was bittersweet. A nation’s freedom was won and the war concluded, but these final hostilities cost Canada 6,298 casualties, including 1,482 dead.
With his trademark “you are there” style that draws upon official records, veteran memories, and a keen understanding of the combat experience, Mark Zuehlke brings to life this concluding chapter in the story of Canada in World War II.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. 1st Edition. pp: 526. The seventh book on the Canadian Army in Europe. The Canadian liberation of much of The Netherlands was an incredible accomplishment for a depleted, and tired army. Their achievement is still remembered by the Dutch who mark the event annually with several ceremonies. Part of the story involves the secret agreement with the Germans to allow food to be delivered to the starving people of the country. Of course, they were starving because the Germans stole most of their food. As with all volumes in the series, this includes a bibliography, an order of battle, chapter notes, and index. A near fine copy in dust jacket. N° de réf. du vendeur 009149
