After Canadian troops had captured Vimy Ridge in 1917, Lieutenant-General Arthur Currie was tasked with capturing Hill 70, a German stronghold near the French town of Lens. Combining outstanding original art and thought-provoking commentary, this book uncovers the stories behind this battle while expanding how history is shared and represented.
