From the Breskens Pocket and operations to open the port of Antwerp, through the Rhineland campaign and the battles to liberate the Netherlands in 1945, this book focuses on some of the most important but least-known campaigns of the Second World War.
This guide to the Second World War battlefields of Belgium, the Netherlands, and Germany encourages Canadians to set out on their own journey to those places – not just the memorials and museums but the villages and fields where young Canadians fought with such bravery to liberate Northwest Europe from the yoke of Nazi tyranny.
The Canadian Battlefields in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany is a companion to The Canadian Battlefields in Normandy and The Canadian Battlefields in Northern France: Dieppe and the Channel Ports.
