Military History, Ottawa, Thurs Oct 28th @ 6:30pm *UBC Press* and the *Canadian War Museum* present: * * *Four Views on Military History* Four authors and four very different books on Canadian military history reveal how writing about the past is inevitably shaped by trends and resources in the present. What defines military history? How should it be recorded? How has it changed? What stories remain untold? These are a few of the engaging and provocative questions moderator *Michael Petrou*, senior writer and foreign correspondent with Maclean’s magazine, will explore with four of Canada’s best minds in the field: *Serge Durflinger* (*Veterans with a Vision: Canada's War Blinded in Peace and War*), * * *James Fergusson* (*Canada and the Ballistic Missile Defence, 1954-2009: Déjà vu All over Again*), * * *Benjamin Isitt* (*From Victoria to Vladivostok: Canada's Siberian Expedition, 1917-19*) and * * *James Wood* (*Milita Myths: Ideas of the Canadian Citizen Soldier, 1896-1921*). Please join us on Thursday, October 28th at 6:30pm at the Canadian War Museum, Barney Danson Theatre, 1 Vimy Place, Ottawa.
