from Canadas Last Hundred Days in the Great War Amiens · host John Frederick Bligh Livesay

Join us as we delve into the remarkable journey of the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the final hundred days of the First World War. From August 8 to November 11, 1918, after enduring nearly four years of grueling trench warfare, the Allies launched a daring plan to break through the German Hindenburg Line. Experience the courage and determination of Canadian soldiers as they capture key locations like Amiens, Arras, and Cambrai, and relentlessly pursue the retreating German forces from Valenciennes to Mons—where the war first ignited on August 4, 1914. Narrated by Richard Laughton, this is a tale of bravery, sacrifice, and the quest for victory.
