English has written a masterful account of Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery's relationship with the Canadian Army. He argues, convincingly, that Monty grabbed the army 'by the scruff of the neck and taught it how to fight effectively, ' allowing it to play a major role in the victorious campaign of northwest Europe, and indeed, thereafter. Prodigious research combined with a clear and engaging writing style make this an outstanding work."" --Phillip S. Meilinger, Col. USAF (ret) and author of Thoughts on War ""John A. English is one of the few Canadian military historians with a large international following. This book - shaped by his thirty-seven years of military service and incredibly thorough research in Canadian, British, and American archives - brings Montgomery's impact on Canada's soldiers into the full light of day. Monty and the Canadian Army will add immeasurably to English's scholarly reputation and should be read by everyone interested in the Second World War."" --J.L.
