This publication chronicles the advance of the Canadian military and the mythical achievements of a kingdom which would have justifiably stayed aloof from the quarrels of others. As either writer and illustrator, Mike Chappell paints an interesting photo of the historical past, apparatus and uniforms of the Canadian Army.
