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 honourable. 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 unsavoury behaviour in the representatives of our military forces from the War of 1812 to the immediate aftermath of the First World War, The Apathetic and the Defiant 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.
Reprint of the original, first published in 1877.
This classic seven-volume work, incorporating authorial revisions and published posthumously in 1877, traces the history of Greece across two millennia.
In a dark age, as the Western Roman Empire teetered on the brink of the abyss, a leader would emerge destined to challenge adversity with unwavering determination. This is the story of Flavius Majorian, the last great emperor of a dying empire, told through the eyes of a servant who bore direct witness to his audacity. The figure of Majorian is often lost in the shadow of history, yet, in the darkest moments, he stood out as a bright light against rampant corruption, dwindling resources, and relentless barbarian threats. With sharp political wisdom and a sword forged in the fire of battles, Majorian managed to weave a tapestry of alliances with the barbarian kings, restoring lost territories and instilling a fragile yet tenacious hope in the hearts of the Romans. Our tale unfolds through the eyes of a loyal servant, who, walking in the corridors of power and on blood-soaked battlefields, reveals the humanity, challenges, and victories of an emperor who refused to bow down to fate. Every page is a journey back in time, where honour, tradition, and bravery clash with the brutality of ambitions and the coldness of betrayal. "Maiorianus" is not just a historical revelation but an emotional journey that rediscovers a forgotten hero and a lesson in resilience and dignity that resonates through the ages. With every word, the reader is pulled into a world of intrigue, hopes, and unparalleled sacrifices, reminding us that even in the darkest hours, the brilliance of Rome still shone in the heart of an indomitable man.
