Reviews

Douglas E. Delaney, Canada Research Chair in War Studies, Royal Military College of Canada:

"Terry Copp has given us a magnificent history of a city at war, not from the hindsight-skewed view of a historian a hundred years removed but from the perspective of the citizens who lived it. This is how history should be done."

Geoffrey Hayes, Professor of History, University of Waterloo:

"Terry Copp’s detailed study of wartime Montreal challenges many established ‘truths’ about Canada in the First World War. The war both united and divided Montrealers. But little-known strikes, hockey rivalries, and municipal tragedies also reveal the wartime city’s complex fault lines. A remarkable work."

Carl Bouchard, Professor of History, University of Montreal:

"Terry Copp brilliantly combines the two fields of interest that defined his fruitful career—social and military history—to immerse readers in the urban emotions of Montreal and the muddy trenches of Europe. Montreal at War is an important addition to a flourishing body of literature on the Great War in Canada."
