To that consideration every other has been subordinated. By identifying so far as possible the actual battle position of individual battalions it is hoped to stimulate local pride and interest in their respective territorial or recruiting areas. Difficulties were here encountered, both through absence Of detailed Oflicial narratives and limitations of space, but if full justice has not been done each fighting unit, it is not from lack of application and goodwill.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an operational history of the Canadian Corps in the battles of the final 100 days of World War I, beginning with the battle of Amiens, August 8, 1918, and culminating in the retaking of Mons on November 11, 1918, only hours before the war ended. During the late summer and autumn of 1918, the Canadian Corps, under Lt. Gen. Sir Arthur Currie, played a crucial role in the defeat of the German Army on the Western Front. This work examines the operational, organizational, and tactical innovations developed by the Corps during this campaign and their subsequent effect on military thought. Six battles are examined for their planning, conduct, and lessons: the Battle of Amiens, the breaking of the Drocourt-Queant line, the Canal du Nord and Cambrai, the pursuit to Valenciennes, the storming of Mount Huoy, and the return to Mons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canada's Triumph From Amiens to Mons: August to November 1918 N the last days of July, the Canadians were some I where north of Arras. Only a select few knew what was planned to take place early in August. When the order came to move, no intimation of the destination was given. All units and formations travelled by night. By day men and horses rested in woods and villages. Every officer and man in the Corps was appealed to to keep silence and not to be curious or inquisitive. On the night of August 7th, Infantry, Artillery, Engineers, Tanks, Motor Machine Guns, Cavalry, Rail way Troops - all the representatives of the various arms of the Service - were mobilised in Gentilles Wood and its vicinity. Hundreds of guns of all calibres, from 18-pounders, or pip-squeaks, as they are affection ately called, to the ponderous 12 and 15-inch howitzers, were in position. They had moved up two nights before. Some of the guns had as many as 600 rounds each allotted to them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Greatest Victory written by J. L. Granatstein and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did Canadians come to lead these mobile, well-coordinated, and hard-hitting attacks? The preparations were intense, according to Granatstein, ranging from individual training to massive corps-wide exercises; careful analysis of "lessons learned" studies; expansion of the role of signallers, gunners and engineers; and perfection of techniques like the "creeping barrage." The "fire and movement" philosophy emphasized by Sir Arthur Currie, Commander of the Canadian Corps, increased the use of tanks, machine guns, Stokes mortars, and phosphorus bombs, among other military hardware. Mobility was the key; Canadians used their two Motor Machine Brigades - with guns and mortars mounted on armoured cars and trucks - with great effect. Granatstein is an award-winning historian who has received six honorary degrees for his work on conflict and Canadian history.
