The apathetic and the defiant : case studies of Canadian mutiny and disobedience, 1812-1919 / Edited by Craig Leslie Mantle; published by The Durndurn Group and Canadian Defence Academy Press in cooperation...: D2-201/2007E
Canadian soldiers have served their country for centuries, and for the most part they have done so honourably and loyally. Yet, on certain occasions, their conduct has been anything but commendable. Whether by disobeying their legal orders, terrorizing the local population, or committing crimes in general, some soldiers have embodied the very antithesis of appropriate military conduct. Covering examples of unprofessional behaviour by certain members of Canada’s military forces from the War of 1812 to the immediate aftermath of the First World War, The Apathetic and the Defiant clearly reveals that disobedience and mutiny have marked all of the major conflicts in which Canada has participated. Canadian military indiscipline has long been overshadowed by the nation's victories and triumphs ... until now.
