Description: Canada's war brides are the young women who met, fell in love with, and married Canadian servicemen in Europe in the Second World War. Forty-eight thousand from Britain, with 22,000 children, followed their husbands to Canada during and after the war.

Canada's war brides fell in love with and married Canadian servicemen in Europe in the Second World War. These are stories of dances, canteens, hasty marriages in borrowed dresses, of tearful farewells in English ports and of delights on the voyage to Canada. Nothing could prepare the war brides for their new country. But for the most part, quick wits, good humour, and loving new families pulled them through.
