Stanley Barracks Book PDF Summary
"Aldona Sendzikas has produced a book on one of Toronto's forgotten institutions: the New Fort, or Stanley Barracks (which stood to the west of the better-known Fort York). Aldona explores such themes as the construction of the garrison in the aftermath of the Rebellion of 1837, the place of the British army in the life of the colonial city, the founding of the North-West Mounted Police at the New Fort, the early ears of Canada's professional army, the military's extensive operations at 'Exhibition Camp' between 1914-18 and 1939-45, the interment of enemy aliens at the site during the Great War, and the destruction of most of the Stanley Barracks in the 1950's. "-Carl Benn, Ph.D., author of Historic Fort York, The Iroquois in the War of 1812, The War of 1812, and the Mohawks on the Nile. "Sendzikas takes us back to the days when Stanley Barracks was a bustling military centre, and shows us what it was like for the thousands of men and women who lived and trained there over the decades."-Jonathan F. Vance, Ph.D., professor and Canada research chair in Conflict and Culture, Department of History, University of Western Ontario.
