All Tigers, No Donkeys: A Canadian Soldier in Croatia, 1994-1995 (2004) By Kurt Grant
 
The concept of the citizen-soldier is not new in Canada. Ever since the Battle of the Plains of Abraham determined the course of history for North America, there have been many examples of citizens setting aside their tools to take up arms in defense of the country. In his diaries, author Kurt Grant describes the inner workings of the military as he saw it during his tour of duty as a reservist who was chosen to go with 1 RCR as part of UNPROFOR, Rotation 5 to CANBAT One in Croatia, in the fall and winter of 1994-1995.
 
Grant's candid descriptions take us into the horrors of a war-torn country, the tensions of keeping the peace between bitter enemies, and the daily routine of life in a military camp."
