The Canadian armour in the Dieppe Raid of 1942 Dieppe 1942. Another book on the Dieppe Raid, some will say. A different book, others will argue. This work is indeed different for several reasons. It does not cover the raid as a whole. It focuses on a single regiment — the armoured regiment. Photographs showing the Canadian tanks are plentiful. Yet this...
