Canada in Flanders, Volume I

by Baron Max Aitken Beaverbrook

A GREAT BOOK.

"A great book by a big man—Sir Max Aitken deserves not merely compliments and unstinted praise, but thanks as well."—Reynolds's Newspaper.

CLEAR BATTLE PICTURES.

"The splendid work of the Canadians on the Western front makes a fine story in the pages of 'Canada in Flanders,' by Sir Max Aitken, M.P. He writes an easy style, and when describing a complicated battlefield can bring clear pictures of its events before the reader. The most important chapter is headed 'Ypres.' It gives the best and most lucid account we have yet seen of the battles which followed the German gas attack last April."—Manchester Guardian.

AN EMPIRE ANNAL.

"A book to thrill and inspire ... to read the story told by Sir Max Aitken is to read one of the finest stories in the annals of the Empire."—Sunday Times.

STORIES THAT THRILL.

"One of the clearest expositions and most effective pieces of writing we remember to have read.... His stories will thrill his readers not only in Canada ... but wherever the English language is read."—Standard.

HEROIC DEEDS.

"The heroic deeds of the Canadians at Ypres make one tingle with pride to be a kinsman to such soldiers. Farmers and fruit farmers, editors and ranchers all showed themselves to be of the finest fighting stuff in the world."—Evening Standard.
