Victor Wheeler was an original member of Calgary’s 50th Battalion. He served with the unit from its Alberta days in 1915, fought on the Western Front from 1916 to 1918. “The 50th Battalion in No Man’s Land” is Wheeler’s heart-felt tribute to his comrades-in-arms. It was life’s work and it reflects the passion of someone who wants his story to be known. Originally published in 1980, it received limited circulation, yet was received as a masterpiece. The book is beautifully written and contains rare details about the war and experiences of trench life.
