In the early days of World War I, Hamilton Gault of Montreal funded the raising of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, named after Princess Patricia of Connaught, who hand-made the camp colour and lent her name to the new regiment. David Bercuson, witht he assistance of the men who fought in some of Canada's most famous battles, has captured the spirit of this great military institution in this magnificent volume. From the battlefields of World War I to recent peacekeeping efforts in Kosovo, this book is a wonderful tribute to our nation's most celebrated soldiers.
