Book 1 — The Originals (1928–1939)
How did a Salvation Army bandmaster turn a handful of Vancouver schoolboys into world champions — twice — before WWII broke out?
Toronto. Chicago. The West of England. Crystal Palace. San Francisco. New York. By 1939 the Kitsilano Boys' Band had toured them all — and were stranded in England when war was declared.
Before there were Canadian content rules, before there was a Canadian flag, there was a 14-year-old Vancouver boy with a cornet and a one-way ticket to the world stage.
