Hey Mark,

When I went to the library last week I actually browsed a lot of book titles where they keep all the War and Military stuff, and am glad to say they have quite a good selection of books. I'll have to check out the online library catalogue to see all what they have.

One book I was delighted to see on the shelf was "Greatcoats and Glamour Boots" It reminded me of how much I enjoy having my very own copy (thank you again ) and how my Aunty Amy now has a copy inscribed personally to her by Carolyn Gossage (I spoke with Ms. Gossage and she sent my Aunt a complimentary inscribed copy)

I brought home 3 books, with lots of pictures ...

Testaments of Honour
Personal Histories of Canada's War Veterans
by Blake Heathcote
Forwrd by Richard Gwyn

Juno Beach
Canada in World War 11

A Penguin Digital Interactive book with a CD

No Price Too High
Canadians and the Second World War

I haven't had a chance to look through the books yet, but will.
