"Matthew Bin's On Guard for Thee: Canadian Peacekeeping Missions is oral history at its best: a thorough, informative and impressive documenting of the
Canadian peacekeeping experience as told not by newspaper pundits, history buffs or policy wonks with their own agendas, but by the brave, bold and dedicated Canadians who actually did the job – so
often thanklessly."

"The book aims to open people's eyes to the daily lives of Canadian peacekeepers and the experiences they have during missions."
