Michael “Mike” Llewellyn Hadley
Michael Hadley, professor emeritus, University of Victoria, and captain (retired) in the naval reserves, lived life as a great adventure with passion, compassion, and outstanding achievements in his many endeavours. Maritime history was only one of those endeavours, which included command responsibilities in the navy, literature and language studies and teaching, and service to social justice causes.

George Henry Wyatt (1828-1883)
This is a first attempt to trace the life of George Henry Wyatt.

He privately admitted that he was being intentionally provocative. The present article, however, reviews subsequent scholarship and offers new research that strengthens Stanley’s findings, and shows that the Canadian army …

The Maritime Defence of Canada
Tin-Pots and Pirate Ships
Michael Hadley and Roger Sarty shed new light on Canadian and German history -- and on Canada's naval defences in particular -- by exploring the naval operations and politics of both nations between 1880 and 1918.
