Little is written about the Canadian volunteers, there are only 4 non fiction books and Michael Petrou's "Renegades" is scholarly. Edward Cecil-Smith, the commander of the ostensibly Canadian Mackenzie Papineau Battalian provides not only a case study of these volunteers, but a dramatic depiction of life in Canada during the 1930s."-- UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=2331501&site=eds-live&custid=s3260518 ER -
