NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT - Punching Above Our Weight

Curious Canadian History

**SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT – NEW BOOK**

Our very own David Borys has a new book coming out in September titled “Punching Above Our Weight: The Canadian Military at War Since 1867” published by Dundurn Press. The book is an easy to read, single volume history of Canada at war since 1867. This photograph-rich volume covers nearly 150 years of the Canadian military, tracing its evolution from a small, underfunded, poorly trained militia to the modern, effective military it is today

The book will be released on September 24th in Canada and October 22nd in the United States.

As part of the pre-sale campaign CCH is dropping a series of short readings by David from sections of the book.

Today’s excerpt takes us back to 1870/71 where we dive into the middle of the last gasp efforts of the Fenian Brotherhood to invade Canada and incite rebellion in Ireland.
