The 1934 Canadian Corps Reunion in Toronto is the setting for this odyssey into the life of a Canadian soldier before, during, and after the First World War. This book is the first of the greater work that ends with the novel, Sap's War. Here, veterans of the First World War and their families fight to stay alive in postwar Toronto; there, the same cast of characters, some alive, some not, travel back to France to open the Vimy Memorial in 1936. Together, the two books constitute a complete old and new testament to the men and women of the Canadian Corps, their families, and, in some cases, their living memories, moving and acting among us, here and now.
