Media reviews

"The book is well written and contains excellent illustrations... The authors of Wolfe's Army have written an interesting book, [not just] focused on the army of General Wolfe... As with all Osprey books, the illustrations and information contained in the plates make this book worthwhile for anyone interested in this period of Canada's history." -Captain Zane Piekenbrock, Canadian Army Journal (Winter 2006)
