BOOK - A Very Brilliant Affair, The Battle of Queenston Heights, 1812. By Robert
Malcomson. The famous War of 1812 battle in which American forces invaded Canada across
the Niagara River and General Isaac Brock was killed. The book explores the multiple roles
of a reserve regiment in peace and war and how these have remained constant over the years
despite changes in society and in warfare. Reserve (or militia) regiments have been the
foundation of the Canadian military and its ability to mobilize for war and civil
emergencies. Reservists train to the combat-ready status of the full-time soldier, and
their involvement creates a strong link between their regiment and the community.

Mulholland. The year is 1825. Archibald McNab, 13th Chief of Clan McNab, has eluded his

the government�and he convinces Lieutenant-Governor Sir Peregrine Maitland to entrust him
with the settlement of a township in what is now Eastern Ontario, 60 kilometres west of
