Mark Zuehlke is the author of many books about military history and the influence of the nation’s war experiences on Canadian society including Juno Beach, Holding Juno and The Gothic Line, a much-lauded trilogy tracing Canada’s role in the World War II Italian campaign; and The Canadian Military Atlas. He lives in Victoria, British Columbia.
“A more thrilling and erudite introduction to this chapter of
Canadian history is hard to imagine.”
–Calgary Herald
“Zuehlke . . . presents a clear, thorough account of both the
conflict and the peace negotiations that influenced and warped its
outcome, and does so without bias. You couldn’t ask for a clearer
account of events.”
–The Vancouver Sun
“Zuehlke’s extensive research and detail will not only appeal to
academics, but his readable style and the well-paced flow will also
intrigue lay historians with an interest in early nineteenth
century Canada.”
–Winnipeg Free Press
Praise for the writing of Mark Zuehlke:
“Holding Juno is a meticulous, gripping story. . . . The scenes
recounted here sometimes make the film The Longest Day seem tame by
comparison . . . an eloquent accounting.”
–The Globe and Mail
“Mark Zuehlke’s grindingly researched book Ortona is a
heart-stopping, intimate look at all the brutal excesses of war.”
–Toronto Star
