Book Description
Montreal at War tells the story of how citizens in Canada's largest city responded to the challenges of the First World War. Drawing from newspapers, journals, government reports, and archival records, Terry Copp - one of Canada's leading military historians - raises important questions about how the Canadian war experience has been interpreted, and the ways in which hindsight has privileged some voices over others. Painting a picture of life in Montreal during the first years of the twentieth century, Montreal at War addresses responses to the outbreak of war in Europe and the process of raising an army for service overseas. It details the shock of intense combat and heavy casualties, studies the mobilization of volunteers, and follows the experience of battalions from Montreal to the Battle of Vimy Ridge. The crisis of conscription is described in the context of national and local developments, and great attention is paid to the experiences of both the army overseas and civilians at home. Challenging long-held assumptions, Montreal at War aims to understand the war experience as it unfolded, approaching history from the perspective of those who lived through it.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Call to Arms: Montreal's Roll of Honour, European War, 1914 "The call to arms" is the work of a few Montreal citizens, who with the aid of many friends, took upon themselves to endeavor to produce a tangible record of the manifold and splendid ways in which Montrealers, military and civil, have served their Country and their Empire during the last five months of 1914. Their first object was to record these facts; secondly, their desire was to serve the Montreal Patriotic Fund by turning over to its treasurer the proceeds of the publication, above the actual net cost of production and distribution. With gratitude for much invaluable assistance received from the many friends who contributed their time and advice gratuitously - and especially among these are to be mentioned Mr. Bernard K. Sandwell, who directed the editorial work, Messrs. A. R. Doble, R. J. Younge, Lieut.-Col. John A. Gunn, J. M. Gibbon - the publishers now commit their volume to the Citizens of Montreal.
