Canada's Hundred Days: With the Canadian Corps from Amiens to Mons, Aug. 8 - Nov. 11, 1918. Part 4, Valenciennes to Mons by John Frederick Bligh Livesay plunges listeners into the climactic final weeks of World War I through the eyes of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. Part Four traces the relentless pursuit from Valenciennes across Belgium to Mons, where the war that began in August 1914 reached its poignant end on November 11, 1918. Livesay weaves military detail with human experience, describing the tactics that broke the Hindenburg Line, the logistics of advancing columns, and the civilian landscapes caught between armies. The narrative captures both large-scale strategy and small, vivid moments of courage, fatigue, and camaraderie without revealing battlefield outcomes in advance. Set amid the broader Hundred Days offensive, the book places Canadian operations in the context of Allied coordination and the collapse of German defenses. Perfect for fans of war stories, military history, and Canadian history, this audiobook offers a compelling, first-hand style account of 1918’s decisive campaign. Listen for a clear, authoritative portrait of the Canadian Corps at the heart of the Great War’s closing chapter.
