Through the lens of six remarkable participants in the Vietnam War, some well-known, others obscure, bestselling historian John Boyko recounts Canada''s often-overlooked involvement in the conflict. Through these wide-ranging and fascinating accounts, Boyko exposes what he calls the Devil''s wiliest trick: convincing leaders that war is desirable, the public that it''s acceptable and combatants that what they are doing and seeing is normal, or at least necessary.

In uncovering Canada''s side of the story, he reveals the many secret and forgotten ways that Canada not only fought the Vietnam War but was shaped by its lies and consequences.
