This study weaves together the stories of members of the Mackay Presbyterian Church who served in the First World War, their families at home, and their church as they responded to a terrible war. It focusses particularly on the nineteen men who fell in the warâ some as heroes in desperate battles; others with tragic randomness or from illness.

Autorenporträt
Alan Bowker was born in Medicine Hat and educated in Winnipeg, Toronto, Chatham, N.J., and Oakville, Ont. He holds a BA in history and English and an MA and PhD in Canadian history, all from the University of Toronto. He is the author of A Time Such as There Never Was Before: Canada After the Great War, he edited two collections of essays by Stephen Leacock, and has written many essays and articles. His academic studies, his teaching experience, and his career in foreign affairs have all reinforced his conviction that Canadians need to know their history if we are to understand who we are and why our experience matters in the world.
