The apathetic and the defiant : case studies of Canadian mutiny and disobedience, 1812 to 1919 / edited by Craig Leslie Mantle ; foreword by Major-General P.R. Hussey.: D2-201/2007E-PDF

"Following the recently released work that explores the primary foundations of disobedience, entitled The Unwilling and the Reluctant: Theoretical Perspectives on Disobedience in the Military, this book provides a number of historical case studies covering more than a century of Canada's early military history.
