Victory and Valor

1916 by Melina Druga

The Battle of the Somme drags on in Europe, but the battle receives sparse coverage in Canada.   

American voters go to the polls in a close election that pits Democrats against Republicans and Republicans against Democrats and Progressives.  Suffragists seize the moment and hope to gain universal suffrage for women on all three parties’ planks.

Part three in the A Tale of Two Nations: Canada, U.S. and WW1 series.  The series explores journalism history by examining how newspapers reported on the war, painting a picture of the war as our ancestors knew it.

My children have found much of the information interesting.
