In many respects it was, it is certainly unheralded by the rest of the world. But what I find truly extraordinary were the men of the Royal Canadian Navy Volunteer Reserve, who manned those corvettes. The best book that tells their story (if you can find it) is "The Corvette Navy" by James B. Lamb, who commanded two of them during the war.
