BOOKS

"The Tribals" by Martin Brice. - This remarkable book is a must for all those who served in one of these ships as well as for those who have an interest in Canada's Navy. Tribals probably saw more action over a longer period of time and over a greater part of the globe than any other class of destroyer. Long out of print, we have now reproduced this book which presents a fine historical account of each of the twenty seven destroyers which served in the Royal Canadian Navy, the Royal Navy and the Royal Australian Navy. Laminated soft cover, 8.5 x 11 format, comb type binding. Each...$35.00

VIDEOS

HMCS IROQUOIS VIDEO - Each...$25.00.

This 25 minute video consists of a series of historical photographs of HMCS IROQUOIS as she appeared in the 1944-45 time period. The photo montage is accompanied by a suitable choice of background music which compliments Tom Ingham's skillful narration. For a two person production, I was very impressed with the result and if you only watch it once, its well worth the purchase.
