About This Item
Coomber-Hempsall Publishing, Surrey. Inscription: "To Irene and Brian with best wishes", "L. Hempsall" on half-title. A History of the War Years at the Royal Canadian Air Force Stations, Ucluelet and Tofino, B.C. Uncommon.
"This World War II history provides an authoritative record of the construction and operation of two Royal Canadian Air Force stations located on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia.
The book describes the background of Japan's entry into World War II and Canada's inadequate defences to protect the West Coast. Submarine attacks on shipping and coastal shore installations, enemy trooplandings on North American soil and incendiary bombing of western North America by a Japanese aircraft and Japanese balloons, are all described in authentic detail."
