By the way, everyone, KPL has several copies: http://encore.kpl.org/iii/encore_kpl/rec...&suite=kpl
It's also available from Amazon.com. I borrowed the copy I read from the Plattsville Library (Oxford County Library system), since I live just outside the Region. What I really liked about the book is that the author admits he has a bias. And if you get a chance to read the book you'll understand why. A similar vote today would not stand. Hell, a vote like that wouldn't be allowed to stand in any democracy. But we were at war and things that normally wouldn't happen happened.
Read the book and you'll never think of Kitchener the same way again. I know I don't. I can't. Our history is anything but boring.
