They fought in colour : a new look at Canada's First World War effort / with Paul Gross & Peter Mansbridge = La guerre en couleur : nouveau regard sur le Canada dans la Première Guerre mondiale / avec Paul Gross & Peter Mansbridge.

Mansbridge, Peter, (writer of afterword.). Gross, Paul, 1959- (writer of foreword.). Vimy Foundation, (editor.).

Summary:

"Picture the First World War as if you were there: in living colour and immersive detail. Even for such a richly documented time, the era is usually obscured behind grainy black-and-white photography. They Fought in Colour is a photographic exploration of Canada's First World War experience, presented for the first time in full, vibrant colour, with essays by some of our country's leading public figures. Explore life on the front lines, the huge support network needed to maintain the Canadian Expeditionary Force, and events on the home front in Canada, during the war that shaped the events of the twentieth century and continues to be present in our lives today."-- Provided by publisher.
