L'extraordinaire chronique d un citoyen français, Brigadier-Général dans l armée canadienne. Brutinelest la biographie fascinante d un immigrant français en Alberta, Canada, relatée par des amis intimes de la famille, Dominique et Jacques Baylauq. Au début des années 1900, avant de s engager dans l Armée canadienne et de mettre sur pied la Brigade motorisée de mitrailleuses, une force tactique nouvelle de la guerre moderne, il apporta une contribution importante à la jeune province, travaillant comme éditeur de journal, arpenteur et bâtisseur de chemin de fer. Le livre contient des transcriptions d entrevues de la Canadian Broadcasting Corporation avec Brutinel à propos de son service durant la Première Guerre mondiale.

Raymond Brutinel was born into an old family from Alet-lesbains, in South-East of France. At the age of 16 he abandoned his studies to travel around the world on some of the last sailing ships. After his military service in Tarbes in the South-West of France, he left with his wife and son and settled in Edmonton Alberta, in 1905. He quickly prospered pursuing numerous activities in journalism, prospecting and finance. His keen interest in military strategy, coupled with his passion for history inspired him to create, in Canada, at the outset of the WWI, the first autonomous motorized machine gun unit.

A historical account of the dairies of Edmonton from 1905-1955.

In 1914 Godfrey Davis arrived in India, a junior officer in the Indian Civil Service. When he reluctantly returned to England thirty years later he was a high court judge with a knighthood and a great love for India. He sympathized with the independence movement and shared a mutual admiration and friendship with Mahatma Gandhi.

Wendy Davis inherited this affection for India and its people. In Dal and Rice she chronicles the memories of her childhood and offers a poignant and measured character study of her father. Her story is part social history, part travelogue, but mostly a very personal account of a relationship with an exotic, chaotic, and often mysterious country.

Avoiding political or ideological perspectives, Wendy Davis has written a fascinating memoir that depicts an extraordinary childhood and a vanished way of life.
