Beginning with a short history of border relations between the United States and Canada, War Plan Red provides a synopsis of two plans: the Canadian “Defence Scheme No. 1” and the United
States’ "War Plan Red." Declassified in 1974, War Plan Red details a US takeover of Canada and dates back to the 1930s, whereas Defence Scheme No. 1, which presents Canada’s invasion plan, was
drawn up a full decade earlier. War Plan Red presents maps, documents, photos, charts, and timelines that describe the two plans in full, along with the context of each. Students, researchers,
and instructors in history and political science will find War Plan Red informative and engaging. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
