Art and Memorial?: The Forgotten History of Canada's War Art (Beyond Boundaries: Canadian Defence and Strategic Studies)

the long version

"The Canadian War Museum possesses one of the finest twentieth-century official war art collections in the world. Until relatively recently, however, the collection has received limited public attention. In Art or Memorial?, author Laura Brandon explores some of the reasons why this may have been the case." "Art or Memorial? seeks to illuminate Canadian war art's sometimes hidden presence in the nation's memory and to show, through both its presence and its absence, how it helped to shape, and will continue to influence, how we remember as a nation."--BOOK JACKET.
