"In 1940, Germany invaded and occupied Norway. The exiled Royal Norwegian Air Force established a training camp for its recruits in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, known as "Little Norway." The air training camp moved to Muskoka Airport near Gravenhurst, Ontario, in 1942, and remained there until near the war neared its end. Little Norway's graduates distinguished themselves in overseas battles, flying in Norwegian squadrons of Britain's Royal Air Force. Many married Canadian women and returned to Canada after the war. Canada can be proud of the assistance it provided to Norway during a dark hour. Canada enabled the Norwegians to establish the air training camp in the country and provided advanced flight training to air crews through the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan. Moreover, Canadians offered kindness and friendship to the young recruits, so far from their homes. This book tells the inspiring story of "Little Norway" and the young Norwegians who trained there."--
