About this ebook
A part-sequel to Through a Canadian Periscope (Dundurn 1995 and 2014), the second edition of Deeply Canadian explains why the RCN needs submarines and tells the story of how Canada nearly lost her submarine service in the 1990s after decades of dedicated duty. The book ends with the process to acquire four Victoria class submarines in the 1990s and their service to 2014, the year of the Canadian submarine service's centenary. Available as an e-book only and is best read on a tablet to enjoy the new and restored images.

Ferguson, has been studying and writing about the Canadian Submarine Service since she visited HMCS Okanagan in 1979.
