No Place to Run shows that this chemical plague was a serious threat even after gas masks were introduced." "Tim Cook uses diaries, letters, reminiscences, published memoirs, and the official archival record to illustrate vividly the grim reality of gas warfare for the average trench soldier. In response, the Canadian Corps had to develop a disciplined anti-gas doctrine, a process that Cook describes in full." "No Place to Run provides a challenging re-examination of the function of gas warfare in the First World War, including not only its important role in delivering victory in the campaigns of 1918 but also its postwar legacy."--Jacket 606 $aGases, Asphyxiating and poisonous$xWar use 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$xChemical warfare 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$vPersonal narratives, Canadian 615 0$aGases, Asphyxiating and poisonous$xWar use. 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918$xChemical warfare. 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918 676 $a358/.34/09409041 700 $aCook$b Tim$f1971-$01598505 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809222803321 996 $aNo place to run$93985376 997 $aUNINA
