by Louis-Georges Desjardins

This book delves into the complex relationship between England, Canada, and Quebec during the First World War. Louis-Georges Desjardins, a Canadian scholar, meticulously examines the contributions of French Canadians to the war effort, challenging the nationalist perspective that painted them as unpatriotic. He analyzes the political discourse surrounding the war, exploring the dynamics of public opinion and the role of national identity in shaping individual responses.
