The reverses experienced by Canadian troops during the late stages of World War II continue to be the subject of intense debate among military historians. Going beyond the immediate causes of these setbacks, John A. English presents a detailed examination of the role the Canadian Army played in Normandy through the closing of the Falaise Gap in August 1944. English reviews this pivotal campaign in depth, paying close attention to the organization, training, and fighting style that the Canadians brought to the battlefield.
