military history.

Description:
xvii, 311 p. : ill., maps ; 24 cm.
Bibliography:
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary:
During the "Hundred Days" campaign of the First
World
War
, over 30 percent of conscripts who served in the
Canadian
Corps became casualties. Yet, they were often considered slackers for not having volunteered. Reluctant Warriors is the first examination of the pivotal role played by
Canadian
conscripts in the final campaign of the Great
War
on the Western Front. Challenging long-standing myths, this book examines whether conscripts made any significant difference to the success of the
Canadian
Corps in 1918. Reluctant Warriors provides fresh evidence that conscripts were good soldiers who made a crucial contribution to the
war
effort.
