On November 4th The Stewart Museum, Brevet Major Bruce Bolton, Officer Commanding and The Officers and Regimental Ladies of the Fort St. Helen Garrison proudly hosted a book launching for two 78th Fraser Highlanders officers, Capt-Lt. Earl Chapman and Lt. Col Ian McCulloch. This event also included a brief verbal and photo presentation given by the authors.

In this book, editors Earl Chapman and Ian McCulloch not only present Thompson’s anecdotes in one volume for the first time (including newly discovered anecdotes never before published), but they also present a wealth of explanation and historical background that helps to bring the period to life and places Thompson’s experiences in context.
