The Eleventh Hour
Jacques Goldstyn, illustrated by Jacques Goldstyn, Anne Louise Mahoney
Jim and Jules have been close since childhood, sharing a birthday and a village. Jim is always slightly ahead: he arrived two minutes earlier and has long been quicker and stronger. When World War I begins in Europe, the friends enter the Canadian Army alongside thousands of other Canadians. Their military service brings tragic consequences to a friendship shaped by lifelong comparison. The book is presented with ink and watercolor illustrations.
