Toronto: Doubleday. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. 1987. First Edition. Hardcover. 0385251106 . Only slight edge wear; A bright, solid book, DJ in protective Mylar sleeve, unclipped. ; B&W Illustrations; 8.60 X 5.60 X 0.90 inches; 227 pages; Convincing proof that Canadian history is anything but dull, this book recounts the action-filled careers of some of the country's most successful and violent adventurers, licit and illicit."From Elizabethan privateers seeking fortune off the coasts of Newfoundland to the courtly warriors of Acadia, from the wildly successful letter-of-marque ships of Liverpool, Nova Scotia to the vicious sea fights of the War of 1812, Horwood and Butts reconstruct the lives of the country's finest fighting seamen. Inland, they consider the less reputable careers of the gangs who fought for control of gold and timber in the raw frontier settlements that would one day be Canada." .

Nowhere is that more evident than on the Western Front, a narrow swath of land in which millions of lives were lost. Believing that "history is too important to be left to the professionals," journalist Stephen O'Shea set out to walk the 450 miles through no-man's-land to discover for his generation the meaning of the war. As his walk progresses, O'Shea recreates the shocking battles of the Western Front, and offers an impassioned perspective on the war, the state of the land, and the cultivation of memory." .
