THERE'S NO WIFE LIKE IT, by Dianne J. Taylor, presents Canada's Navy as seen through the eyes of women married to Canadian sailors past and present.
Much has been written about the proud exploits of Canada's Navy, but generally from a male viewpoint. "There's No Wife Like It" takes a refreshingly different approach, presenting the Navy as seen through the eyes of women married to Canadian sailors past and present. Herself a naval wife, Dianne J. Taylor interviewed hundreds of such women from coast to coast, and has woven their recollections into a compelling book. The title, adapted from a current Canadian Forces recruiting slogan, is indeed appropriate. Naval wives, God bless them, are a special breed.
