In this book, George Raudzens seeks to enhance our understanding of the
British military's contribution 'to the shaping of Canada' by providing an
administrative history of the Ordnance Department in the context of its
particular contribution to Canadian development. The book focuses on the
Ordnance's Canadian canal construction program because the canals, which were
intended to provide a secure interior military transportation network, were
the Ordnance's 'outstanding contribution' to the development of Canada. Other
contributions of the Ordnance Department to Canadian development are merely
touched on in passing.
