In the second installment of Much Ado About History, we will be interviewing the Patron of the History Society, Mr. Hammad Junejo. The episode will focus on his book: The Last War That Had To Be Fought, which documents the experience of Sergeant Harry Preston, a gunner in the Canadian 3rd Light Anti-Aircraft Regiment during World War 2. Through Mr Junejo’s valuable insight, we will understand more about the Second World War from the perspective of an ordinary soldier. Our history textbooks teach us about the experience of the war from the perspective of the victors, losers, or dictators—but they rarely ever offer insight into the common man’s lived experience at the frontlines. We hope that this episode brings to light the stories that got lost in translation—those of the ordinary man.
