The black battalion : 1916-1920 : Canada's best kept military secret / Calvin W. Ruck. by Ruck, Calvin W. (Calvin Woodrow), 1925-2004. Nimbus Publishing, c2016. Call #: 940.412 R911c 2016 Subjects Canada. Canadian Army. Construction Battalion, 2 -- History.   World War, 1914-1918 -- Regimental histories -- Canada.   World War, 1914-1918 -- Blacks -- Canada.   Blacks -- Canada -- History -- 20th century.   World War, 1914-1918 -- Canada. ISBN:  9781771084550 (lib. bdg.) Alternate title:  Canada's black battalion. Edition:  30th Anniversary ed. Description:  xvii, 126 p. : ill., photos, ports ; 23 cm. Notes:  Originally published under title: Canada's black battalion. Halifax : Society for the Protection and Preservation of Black Culture in Nova Scotia, 1986. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "Black military heritage in Canada is still generally unknown and unwritten. Most Canadians have no idea that Blacks served, fought, and died on European battlefields, all in the name of freedom. The story of the overt racist treatment of Black volunteers is a shameful chapter in Canadian history. It does, however, represent an important part of the Black legacy and the Black experience. It is a story worth reporting and worth sharing. In this thirtieth-anniversary edition of Ruck's celebrated history of Nova Scotia's No. 2 Construction Battalion, known as the Black Battalion, the original text and over 60 photographs and documents is presented for a whole new generation of readers, along with a new foreword and photographs from journalist Lindsay Ruck, Calvin W. Ruck's proud granddaughter."--From publisher.
