Sanderson, Eric: Editor
Nature's Fury - The Inside Story of the Disastrous British Columbia Floods May-June, 1948
64 pages. Copiously illustrated with incredible black and white photographs. The inside story of the disastrous British Columbia floods of 1948 which inundated thousands of acres of fertile farmland, left hundreds of persons homeless, and wrought ruin and devastation throughout the province. Compiled from the works of newspapermen who spent almost three weeks in the Fraser, Columbia, Kootenay and Okanagan Valleys to bring first-hand accounts of the disaster to the public. "Most of the pictures, the climax to a hundred dangers traversed by each photographer, are self-explanatory. They show NATURE'S FURY from every angle." - from Foreward. Sections are devoted to the following locales: Barnston Island; Agassiz; Nicomen Island; Chilliwack; Hatzic; The Haztic Break; Matsqui; The Lower Mainland; Queensborough; Pitt Meadows; Kootenays; The Mission Gauge; Mission; Fort Langley and Glen Valley; Trail; Sumas; and Hope. Above average wear. Bit of ink writing upon page 50 else unmarked. A rare and scarcely believable account. Book

Smith, Wilfred I
Code Word CANLOAN
346 pages including glossary, notes, index and black and white photographic plates. The story of a group of Canadian Army officers who volunteered to serve in the British Army in Europe between D-Day, 1944, and V-E Day, 1945, in a scheme called CANLOAN. Author was one of the participants and has based this work upon research supplemented by the recollections of survivors. A vivid account both of the experiences of the CANLOAN officers and of the scheme itself, from the initial concept to its realization. Presents slit-trench views of the battles in Normandy, Arnhem, Italy, the Rhineland and beyond the Rhine. Covers the role of the platoon commander in battle, the experiences of prisoners of war, the wounded, and the 50 Ordnance Corps volunteers who with 623 junior infantry officers made up CANLOAN. This copy appears to have come from a low circulation library, perhaps in a senior's home. Stickers have been removed from dust jacket and their former presence is nearly invisible. Otherwise, dust jacket remains very attractive and shows only light wear. Prior owner's address label and three small library stamps upon decorated front endpaper. No other markings to book which is clean and bears light wear. Blue boards decorated with gilt. A lovely copy. Book

Davis, James R.
The Sharp End : A Canadian Soldier's Story
270 pages. Through James Davis's eyes we see the real face of Canada's army: efficient, technologically advanced - sometimes brutal. The uncompromising opinions Davis has about the strengths and weaknesses of our present-day military are backed up by his own first-hand experience at "the sharp end" as a front-line soldier. Will interest not just military buffs but also those who want to understand the life-and-death pressures facing Canada's soldiers at home and abroad. "If Canadians really want to know what our soldiers faced in Bosnia, Rwanda and right here in Caada, Jim Davis delivers. Read him and think." - Desmond Morton. Book and dust jacket clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Excellent copy. Book
