CANUCK: Volume I

It is anticipated at this time that an updated and reprinted volume of Canuck: Clothing and Equipping the Canadian Soldier 1939-1945 will be prepared within the coming years. It is likely the new volume will be in softcover in an expanded size, with new photographs and an all-colour format.

In September 2007 the last remaining stock of the now out of print initial volume was liquidated on ebay.

An as yet un-named volume similar to Jean Bouchery's The Canadian Soldier but with a focus on the 25th Canadian Brigade in the Korean War is in the planning stages; the centrepiece of this volume will be over 100 colour photographs taken during the Korean War and preserved on Kodachrome slides in a private collection.
