  7. ↑ McGill-Queens University Press, Best Book in Canadian Military History, Dec 19, 2011: The jury states, "In chronicling the 69-year life of a remarkable Canadian, Miller has done what only the best biographers can do – use the individual’s story to impart a deeper understanding of the events and society of their time. With A Knight in Politics, Miller reminds us that people are at the centre of history. To understand the life of a man who came from respected Nova Scotia family, graduated from Harvard medical school, made a small fortune as an entrepreneur, became a Member of Parliament at the age of thirty, and held the Cabinet post of Minister of Militia and Defence during fifteen formative years for the Canadian military (1896-1911) is to know something of society, business, politics, British Imperial relations, and military affairs in turn-of-the-century Canada. Richly researched and written with grace, A Knight in Politics will engage anyone, scholar or layperson, wanting to learn more about the public affairs of Canada and the people who conducted them in the decades that preceded the Great War."
