Books
On 22 April 1915, the men of the 1st Canadian Division faced chlorine gas. In defiance of a particularly horrible death or, at the very least, severe lung injury, these men fought almost continuously for five days, often hand-to-hand. By doing so, they saved 50,000 troops in the Ypres salient from almost certain destruction.
