"... Christopher Kilford sets out to carefully examine how Canada became involved with the provision of military equipment, advice and training to armed forces throughout the developing world after 1945 ... impact that military assistance had in several 19th century countries and why later, in the 1960s, militaries were often viewed as the best means to encourage wider societal modernization while also preventing the spread of communism. This latter issue was a key reason why Ottawa found itself authorizing military assistance missions in the post-war period, until such efforts, at the urging of Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, effectively dried up in the early 1970s."--from back cover.

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.
