Excerpt from Canada in the Great World War, Vol. 3: An Authentic Account of the Military History of Canada, From the Earliest Days to the Close of the War of the Nations, Guarding the Channel PortsDefeated by recognized methods of warfare, they turned from their guns and their man power to the laboratories, hoping for victory through the genius of their chemists. With poison gas they sought to tri umph over their foes and win a clear road to Calais. The Contemptible Little Army had been largely instrumental in breaking their hosts in the fall of 1914. A force which they held in even greater contempt the Colonial troops from the Dominion Of Canada was to be the main factor in nullifying the effect of their nefarious method of warfare. The Second Battle of Ypres was to give to the Canadians a distinct place in military history and to render the ground on which they nobly fought and nobly died forever sacred to Canada.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
