Canada: The Trustees, The Canadian Scottish Regiment (Princess Mary's). Good in Good dust jacket. 1958. First Edition. Hardcover. "The Canadian Scottish Regiment played a vital part in the greatest combined operations attack in the history of war - D Day, June 6th, 1944. [This book] tells the story of the Regiment from 1920 to 1955. It deals with the trials and tribulations of the inter-war period when, by doggedness and hard work, this militia regiment overcame many obstacles. Reading the chapters dealing with the Regiment's battles from Normandy to Germany, veterans will re-live the sights and sounds of the carnage at Caen and Falaise, the hectic pursuit to the Channel Ports, the slugging match along the Leopold Canal, and the bitter battles along the Rhine. With its authentic data, black and white photographic plates and numerous fold-out maps, this book will be an invaluable and treasured volume on the shelves of historian and veteran alike." - dust jacket.
