"Cent-vingt jours de service actif" by Charles R. Daoust is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The narrative recounts the experiences of the 65th Battalion of Canadian volunteers during their service in the North-West Rebellion, particularly focusing on their arduous journey from Montreal to Edmonton and beyond. The book offers a detailed portrayal of the soldiers' lives, including their trials, camaraderie, and the challenges they faced during this significant military campaign. The opening of the work sets the stage for a captivating historical journey, beginning with the battalion's departure from Montreal and detailing the emotional farewells of families and friends. Daoust vividly describes the initial stages of their journey, including the overwhelming snow, the camaraderie among the soldiers, and the mixed emotions of excitement and anxiety as they embark on their mission. Through the lens of personal anecdotes and observations, the narrative gradually unfolds, painting a picture of the harsh realities of military life, the landscape they traversed, and the connections formed amongst the soldiers during this challenging expedition.
