Erin, ON: The Boston Mills Press, 1984. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. pp: [1-8]9-120. FIRST EDITION. Pictorial dust jacket over black cloth boards, pictorial endpapers, frontispiece photograph, photos, maps, glossary, nominal roll for D-Day. A history of the actions of the Highland Light Infantry of Canada near the village of Buron during the month following the D-Day landings. They faced the 12th SS (Hitler Youth) exchanging artillery barrages and fighting patrols. On the 8th July, 1944 the regiment executed a plan to capture the village which is described in this book. The unusual aspect of the fighting was the ferocity with which it was carried out on both sides. The text includes many full page photographs. The soldiers in most of the photos are identified by name and rank.
