Paperback. Condizione: Good. First Edition. In the second world war "young people from this nation left the comforts and security of home and family to enter into what proved to be a long and sustained struggle in a cause that threatened the freedom and stability of the entire world. Canada's youth found itself on strange foreign shores, cut off from friends and loved ones. As days turned into months an months into years, the hunger for news became insatiable. There was no complacency here. The usual, the ordinary, the commonplace were eagerly gobbled up as individuals desperately strove to keep in touch. News from home, news of victory, news of pending successes boosted morale, offered encouragement and made the daily routine of war a little more bearable. Those who assumed responsibility for directing, searchiing out and producing the news for Canada's Armed Forces will probably never know the extent to which their efforts were appreciated. It is in recognition of this superlative contribution that this book has come to fruition." - Preface. Presents this history of this publication and recollections of its staffers.
