| The Wars is a 1977 novel by Timothy Findley telling the story of a young Canadian officer in World War I. It won the Governor General's Award for fiction in 1977. The Wars follows the experiences of Robert Ross, an officer in the Canadian army who is 19 years old when World War I breaks out. It is narrated by a historian working in the 1970s, researching Ross's life and a controversial wartime incident he instigated. The story is told through the memories of the few living people who knew him, and the historian's reconstructions based on archive materials. The novel portrays the life of a family in Canada in the early 20th century and warfare on the Western Front.
