pp. 304, inc. B&W photos and maps. “From 1992 to 1995, the Canadian Army was at the center of a violent conflict that raged throughout the Balkans. In this informative new book, the authors perform an invaluable service to Canadian history as they bring together a collection of first hand accounts from Canadian soldiers involved in UN missions in Croatian and Bosnia. // These personal narratives, taken from officers, NCOs and enlisted men who served Canada in these dangerous lands, allows the reader an intimate look into UN peacekeeping in the early 1990s and the effect it has had on our soldiers. Incredible events are described in vivid detail; events that typify the courage, integrity, and resourcefulness of men subjected to the effects of a brutal three-way civil war. // Also included are accounts by the participants of the relatively unknown but still controversial Medak Pocket operation, and by the Canadians who conducted the disengagement of the Kiseljak Pocket, a critical step towards peace between the Bosnian Muslims and the Bosnian Croats.”
