I just noticed another book on similar theme to my last post.
Park prisoners : the untold story of Western Canada's national parks, 1915-1946,, by Waiser, W. A.
Saskatoon : Fifth House Publishers, c1995. 294 pages, illustrations.
I read a review which said that the book covers the lives of "enemy aliens" including Germans who were put to work at building roads, trails and campgrounds in Canada's national parks during WW1 and 2. It was essentially forced labour, and they were made to live in the parks where they worked. Gives details about how they got there and what they did; many aaecdotes. i have not seen it.
