Pictorial Works
Both Bernier and Marteinson are popular histories of the Canadian Armed Forces -- Marteinson of the Army only. Both introduce a number of illustrations never before published, but both, and especially Marteinson, are substantial textual histories of the war as well. Robertson's Relentless verity contains, for the First World War, the work of official photographers to the Canadian government. Although Robertson's book has become dated as more material has become available, the quality of the reproductions makes it a pleasure to use.

Much like a family scrapbook, this work is made up of pictures, reproductions of newspaper articles and extracts from material as varied as speeches and training manuals.
