a biased opinion

i guess i am biased on this book becuase i am related to the author but i found this book very enjoyable. I'm usually not one for war stories, when i picked up this book I did not put it down untill i was done reading the whole thing. i was mesmerized, this is an amazing read

An unusually haunting and vividly written account

Because We Are Canadians is a battlefield memoir of Charles D. Kipp, revealing a Canadian soldier's harrowing struggle to survive on the World War II battlefields of Europe after D-Day. Deftly edited by Lunda Sykes, Because We Are Canadians is strongly recommended as being an unusually haunting and vividly written account, with all the visceral feelings of terrible risk and bloodshed, as well as offering one man's view of both the minute details of everyday life and the unfolding battlefield journal of World War II history.
