Canadians in the Civil War

Hoy pulls together all of the small strands of the Canadian activities in the Civil War -- the enlistment of tens of thousands of Canadians, the Canadian-based Confederate espionage system, the raids on St. Albans and Johnston Island -- and explains, in clear and elegant writing, the war's impact on both Canada and the United States. It's the best book on the subject and it fills a gap in the book collection of any Civil War specialist. Mark Bourrie Ph. D. (Cand) University of Ottawa Ottawa, Canada
