From the rear cover

"This account emphasizes the human dimension of the struggle and features clean, realistic color art with ample text blocks as well as dialog. Intended for both adults and young adults, this should be useful in history classes throughout North America in addition to appealing to WWII buffs and aficionados of war comics."—Library Journal

"...concise and visually enriched...(Keery) provides a clear and focused accounting of Canada's participation on the Allies' behalf...Wyatt's expressive and brilliantly inked images individual politicians, military leaders, and landscapes, as well as common soldiers and sailors and pilots in frightening spaces and events..."—School Library Journal
