About the author

J. A. Holland is credited as the author of The Story of the Tenth Canadian Battalion, 1914–1917, a wartime history first published in the late 1910s. The book focuses on the service of the 10th Canadian Battalion during World War I and has remained available through library and archive collections.

Reliable biographical details about Holland are limited in the sources I could confirm. Based on the book itself and library records, Holland appears chiefly in connection with this military history rather than through a widely documented public literary career.

For listeners interested in memoir-like military writing and early 20th-century battlefield history, Holland’s work offers a direct window into how one battalion’s story was recorded not long after the war itself.
