Fascinating book documenting how a little-known small part of the war production centered on the incredible value of small metal brushes used in the production of war equipment. It is also the story of a small industry and how the Brush Division of the Equipage Branch of the War Production Board was set up. The role of brushes in manufacturing and every-day life is chronicled.

Born in Detroit and raised in Ontario, Denison was the son of Canadian author, dressmaker, theosophist, Whitmanite, and feminist Flora MacDonald (Merrill) Denison and American garment salesman Howard Denison.
In 1921, after pursuing studies in architecture, he became Art Director of Hart House Theatre, Toronto. Denison soon began to write comedies, some of which were conceived at his summer home in Bon Echo and performed in the Tweed Playhouse in Tweed, Ontario. As author of The Romance of Canada, a highly successful series of historical plays broadcast in 1931 and 1932, he received wide acclaim as a pioneer in radio drama.
During the decades that followed he devoted his energies to this field, preparing numerous plays for broadcast in the United States.
Increasingly interested in business history, during the 1950s and 60s Denison wrote several popular histories of Canadian corporations, including Harvest Triumphant: The Story of Massey-Harris.
