How Canadian forces brought 'sweetest of springs' to Netherlands

Mark Zuehlke, whose On to Victory: the Canadian Liberation of The Netherlands — the eighth volume of The Canadian Battle Series — has just been published, spoke with CBC News on April 30, 2010 by phone from Calgary, where he was speaking and signing books at the Military Museum.

The latest volume chronicles 44 days of war during what is known in The Netherlands as "the sweetest of springs."

Besides the Second World War series, Zuehlke has also written books about the War of 1812, the First World War and the Spanish Civil War. A former journalist now based in Victoria, he also writes mysteries.

This is an edited transcript of the interview
