David Bartlett of Bartletts Battlefield Journeys comments on "Canadians at War" in an e-mail to author Susan Evans Shaw:
"I must say I find it most moving and extremely readable. I really think you have produced a masterpiece, so well written, and it will be the Battlefield Bible for Canadian Visitors for many years to come. You and Jean have produced a guide more than rivalling that written by Professor John Laffin for Australians. And as for the photos - they are simply breathtaking. Jean is an expert in her craft. Her composition is always perfect."
