I recently stumbled across Mrs. Galloway's compilation, "Too Young to Fight" and will find it a valuable resource for my wartime novels set in Canada. I wrote about it on my blog at www.terrietodd.blogspot.com

From a former student in the "enriched class" at Northview Heights of many years ago, thank you, Mrs. Galloway, for introducing us to the Odyssey and to the Divine Comedy and lots more.

Mrs. Galloway was our grade twelve English Teacher and revered by all! She was a hoot and quite the comic! God Bless & Rest In Piece!
