Canadian forces played a major role in this campaign, whose goal was to open a second front in order to ease the pressure on Russian forces in the east. Canada fought under British command alongside British and American units, but our soldiers saw some of the fiercest fighting and achieved glory many times, including at the Battle of Ortona, one of Canadas greatest military accomplishments.</p><p>The pictorial history examines the Italian Campaign from the view of the soldiers serving there. Regiments represented in interviews in this book include the Princess Patricias Light Infantry, the Perth Regiment, the Governor-Generals Horse Guards, the Ontario Regiment, the 48th Highlanders, the Calgary Regiment, the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment, the Royal Canadian Dragoons, and the Royal Canadian Navy.</p>", "author": "Lance Goddard", "slug": "hell-and-high-water-45606-9781550029154-lance-goddard", "thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/9781550029154.jpg", "default_thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/default_book_thumbnail.jpg", "product_type": "book", "product_id": "45606", "product_url": "/app/ecom/book/45606/hell-and-high-water-45606-9781550029154-lance-goddard", "bisac_codes": [ "HIS027100", "HIS027000" ], "items_count": null, "identifiers": { "ISBN13": "9781550027280", "EISBN13": "9781550029154", "EISBN10": "1550029150" }, "drm": null, "cover_image": null, "default_cover_image": null, "book_type": null }, "relationships": { "lowest_offering": { "data": { "type": "offerings", "id": "00010015256091" } } } }, { "type": "Product", "id": "00010000045605", "attributes": { "name": "Henry John Cody", "subtitle": "An Outstanding Life", "description": "<p>Henry John Cody was born in Embro, Ontario, on December 6, 1868.

Despite having just moved into a beautiful new house, the Williams family gave in to an odd, overwhelming desire to purchase and move into a Victorian home they had come upon by chance. They were curious, of course, as to why the house had, in the past, had such a high vacancy rate - no one ever seemed to live in it for a long period of time. But that curiosity didnt last long, because shortly after moving in, strange things began to happen. It became abundantly clear that the homes past owners had all had a reason for leaving: fear. The Williams new home was haunted. At first, the family tried telling themselves there were logical explanations for the strange things they all were witnessing. But before long they came to accept the fact that they were sharing their home with ghosts.<br/><br/> Haunted is the Williams familys story from the point of view of the mother, Dorah. Through her chilling reminiscences, we witness the all-too-real goings-on in the house. And we join the family as they seek a way to bring an end to the paranormal events that were occurring with ever more frequency and intensity, and learn why the events began in the first place.</p>", "author": "Dorah L.

And yet these three seemingly unconnected elements came together at just the right moment in time, to create one of the great but little known stories of Canadas early years.</p><p>Hard Oiler! is the story of how oil was discovered near Sarnia, Ontario, one hundred and forty years ago, and how the subsequent exploitation of that oil gave birth to what is arguably the worlds most important industry today.</p><p>This great Canadian milestone can be traced back to the summer of 1858 when James Miller Williams struck oil in Lambton County, in Southwestern Ontario. Soon thereafter Williams dug the first commercial oil well in North America - if not the world - and began refining and marketing his product as machine lubricant and lighting oil. This set off a chain of events that resulted in the establishment of an industry on which our very life today is so heavily dependent.</p><p>Hard Oiler! traces these events including the gold rush-like frenzy that saw the overnight rise and decline of the frontier town of Oil Springs, and the creation of the much more permanent community of Petrolia, which still flashes its Victorian charm to this day. It also recalls the exotic adventures of Lambton oil drillers as they travelled the globe opening up oil fields from Java to the Ukraine, and from America to Venezuela and the Middle East.</p>", "author": "Gary May", "slug": "hard-oiler-45602-9781554881840-gary-may", "thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/9781554881840.jpg", "default_thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/default_book_thumbnail.jpg", "product_type": "book", "product_id": "45602", "product_url": "/app/ecom/book/45602/hard-oiler-45602-9781554881840-gary-may", "bisac_codes": [ "NAT038000", "4.0.2.0.0.0.0" ], "items_count": null, "identifiers": { "ISBN13": "9781550023169", "ISBN10": "1554881846", "EISBN13": "9781554881840", "EISBN10": "1554881846" }, "drm": null, "cover_image": null, "default_cover_image": null, "book_type": null }, "relationships": { "lowest_offering": { "data": { "type": "offerings", "id": "00010014954108" } } } }, { "type": "Product", "id": "00010000045601", "attributes": { "name": "The Happy Warrior", "subtitle": "Political Memoirs", "description": "<p>Originally published in 1988, this revised and expanded edition of Donald C.

Typically the tax is 0.25% or less, paid whenever stocks and shares or bonds, etc. change hands. The tax originally proposed by Tobin would be a new tax applicable to all international transactions in which currency is exhanged. A similar tax in North America could bring in billions of dollars, even if the tax were as low as 0.1%.</p><p>In Good Taxes, Alex Michalos puts forth the argument in favour of a financial transactions tax. He looks at the tax as being a benefit to the countries that collect it, as well as a possible solution to such problems as world poverty and the underfunding of the United Nations.</p><p>Good Taxes provides a thorough analysis of the debate over the proposed tax. Michalos traces the development of the debate back to the proposed Tobin Tax, then details the arguments for and against the implementation of a financial transactions tax. The conclusion is one that is sure to have an impact in North American financial circles.</p>", "author": "Alex C.
