MAKING TRACKS:TANK PRODUCTION IN CANADA
by Clive M Law

The first ever examination of the unknown story of WWII Canadian tank production, based on official reports and coupled with many recently uncovered photographs. The vehicles described in this book proved that Canada was capable of developing and constructing tanks which could more than hold their own, but the realities of economy of scale meant that Canadian Divisions eventually came to be equipped with American Armoured Fighting vehicles.

1935 ARMOURED CAR IN CANADIAN SERVICE
by Roger V Lucy

New from publisher, unread. In the 1920s and 1930s Canada only had small armed forces, a limited defence budget and limited armament production facilities. Despite this two armoured cars were ordered in 1932. Built by Ford and Chevrolet they were intended to train units. Delays in obtaining suitable AFV-pattern Vickers machine guns meant that they were initially used without any armament. Canadian wheeled AFVs built in WWII owed little or nothing to them but they are nevertheless interesting vehicles in their own right.

THE SKINK IN CANADIAN SERVICE
by Roger V Lucy

New from publisher, unread. The effectiveness of the Luftwaffe in the ground support role during the early campaigns in WWII led to the development of self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicles to protect tank units. One of the more unusual was the Skink which carried four 20mm guns in a powered, fully-enclosed turret. Designed to be fitted to the Grizzly, which was the Sherman M4A1 built in Canada, its development history is covered well here, from early concepts though production of a wooden mock-up turret, to the final cast metal design.
