☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collected edition presents a graphic history of the Battle of Hill 70, a significant but often overlooked Canadian engagement during the First World War. Through a combination of illustrated storytelling and historical context, the book aims to convey the experiences of soldiers and the broader impact of the conflict, drawing on archival materials and personal accounts. Published by McGill-Queen's University Press, it serves as both an educational resource and a commemoration of Canada's wartime history.
"Chapter 1: De-Picturing the Great War" presents a powerful, intimate look at the Battle of Hill 70 through the eyes of Lt. Brock Chisholm—known to his comrades as "Nemo" for his uncanny knack for surviving the front lines. Written by Robert C. Engen and brought to life with striking visuals by Matthew Barrett, whose work on pencils, inks, and colors unites in a bold, evocative style, this graphic history reimagines the war not through grand narratives, but through the quiet, personal moments of a soldier navigating chaos.
