A great story by the "Common Canadian Soldier" of WWII

Although it's been some years since I read this book, I often reflect on it. Robert Collins wrote a wonderful story called "Butter Down the Well". It's a tale of growing up in a small town in Southern Saskatchewan, Canada. He followed it up with "The Long, The Short, and the Tall", about his growing up and going to war. If you enjoy true life stories about "everyman", give this book a second look. It's worth it!
