What Members Thought
A bit soap opera -ic and full of long lists . Not sure if I’d say this is good literature . It’s entertaining but I cannot go on to the next volume without a break .
Small note;
Just to be clear ; Canada was involved in WW2 along with Britain , from the very start ( 1939 ) Yet no mention is made of this . Just a pet peeve .
Canada was considered British until 1950.
The USA did not enter the action until 1942 but MUCH is made of this ( after Pearl Harbour)
