About This Item
Toronto: McGraw-Hill Ryerson, 1994. "In Corvettes Canada, I have tried to create a layman's history of these warships. I follow our corvettes from start to finish and go beyond the crucial North Atlantic convoy escort role to explore their many other theaters of operations and duties. The result is a book that relates some of the experiences of more than 250 men in some 50 corvettes". (taken in part from the introduction by the author). 310 pp includes bibliography and index. Illustrated with map of Atlantic Ocean Convoy Routes and many b/w photos. Name and date to title page. An immaculate book in a photo illustrated price intact dust jacket. The condition of this book promises to please. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Fine.
