The millennium conference on Canadian military history featured over one hundred presentations, too many, unfortunately, to be published in a single volume. Twenty authors chose not to submit a written version of their talk, a fact which eased some of the burden of selection, and a further twenty texts were not accepted for publication according to well established criteria: the originality of the topic, the quality of documentation used (particularly as it related to the use of primary sources), and, more generally, the contribution they made to knowledge did they advance the historiography of their subject.
