Synopsis

A treasure trove of letters from and about Fritz Peters, VC — one of Canada’s greatest war heroes — gives new insight into his life, his thinking and what made him tick. Lovable and eccentric, Peters’ life criss-crosses the globe, encompassing boyhood on two coasts of Canada, naval service at the romantic China station, tense battles with German U-boats and a mysterious career in the spy world, culminating with him leading ships to a modern-day Charge of the Light Brigade inside an Algerian port which finds him facing Vichy French guns lined up against him from every direction.
