The Good Regiment: The Carignan-Salieres Regiment in Canada 1665-1668

Rating:
Summary: setting record straight
Review: Verney dispells many of myths and legends about the role of the Carignan-Salieres Regiment in this well researched work. Cutting through much of the biased information and going to great depths to show these men for what they were: normal infantry men of their time. He counters the "golden haze" around the regiment and shows what affect the regiment had in Canada in informative and unbiased detail. A must read for any Candian wondering about the origins of their country.
