The Great War Tour with Norm Christie

Military historian Norm Christie presents a four-part series examining the First World War from a Canadian perspective. As he begins his journey through the historic battlefields of France and Belgium, Christie focuses on the career of General Sir Arthur Currie, a soldier who rose through the ranks from humble gunner in 1897 to lead the Canadian Corps to several victories during the conflict which began in 1914. In Europe, he was regarded highly yet his exploits failed to have the same impact at home. Part 1 of 4.
