About This Item
Winnipeg, Manitoba: Inter-Collegiate Press. Very Good. 1967. First Edition. Hardcover. "These stories and articles about Marwayne, Alberta and surrounding school districts have been voluntarily written to recall the past. Comparatively few homesteaders remain so research has been difficult. We sincerely hope our efforts in compiling this book will bring back memories and preserve these events for future generations. We have come a long way from oxen to tractors and buggies to automobiles and aircraft." - Foreword. Marwayne is located a half-hour drive northwest of Lloydminster. 208 glossy pages. Devoted primarily to local biographies and family histories. Generously illustrated with black and white reproductions of archival photos. Photo endpapers. Clean, bright and unmarked with light wear to scarlet cloth. Binding tight. A lovely copy of this informative local history and invaluable genealogical reference. Krotki (2nd Edn) 680, Strathern 3147. ; 4to .
