Record information – Details Date(s):1916-1917, 1945.Place of creation:OntarioExtent:34 mapsLanguage of material:EnglishScope and content:Consists of Communication and Route Maps; Artillery Maps ; Intelligence Maps ; Trench Maps - Lens and Hill 70 ; Trench Maps - Avion ; Aerial Photographs and Secondary Documents.Additional information:General note:Following the victory at Vimy, the Canadian Corps was placed under the leadership of Lieut.-General Sir Arthur Currie and was directed to mount attacks on Lens beginning in late April. The assault was necessary in order to keep the Germans occupied and away from the major offensive that the Allies had begun in Flanders. Currie's plan was to encircle the city by taking the small town of Avion to the southeast of Lens and Hill 70 to the north. By late August, both operations had been declared entirely successful, despite intense German counterattacks, especially on Hill 70.
As evident from the following list, the Canadian Corps produced a large number of maps in support of their assault on Lens, especially trench maps. In order to assist researchers in their searches, the items listed under trench maps have been subdivided into the two major campaigns: Hill 70 and Avion.
(The preceeding is an extract from Jeffrey Murray's "Guide to Maps of the First World War")Cartographic math data:Scales differ.Formatted contents note:The original World War I map collection was constituted from various sources at a time when adequate records on provenance were not preserved by the then Public Archives. The present organization in sub-series was devised to accommodate maps found in other fonds and collections, therefore, the list below will include maps that may not be ordered from the present record. Researchers should consult any alternate MIKAN record number that appears below. Maps marked by the letters WWI do belong to the original collection and may be ordered here. Please note though that almost all the maps are available on microfiche and may be consulted on the premises directly from self-serve cabinets.
