In Death Rained Down from the Sky, war veteran Brian Bellemare remembers the events leading up to WWII and how his appetite for adventure led him from boot camp to the bombing of London and the horror of Dieppe. It is a concise overview of Canada's involvement in a war that shaped the Western world's economic and social fabric, and a requiem for those, both allies and enemies, whose lives were lost.
