About This Item
Toronto, ON: Hounslow Press, 1997. Soft cover. Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; a few very light scratches to cover; otherwise appears unread; This book traces the development of Ottawa from its earliest settlers, through its days as a lumber town, and on to its birth as Canada's capital. From Philemon Wright, who first settled Hull, to the celebrations marking the end of the Second World War, this book traces the building of the canal and the Parliament Buildings, the great fire of 1900, and the struggle to become capital. More than 1000 beautiful b&w photographs illustrate the text, providing a glimpse of life in the city. This visual record shows all facets of life in the capital, from sports and leisure activities to transportation, from occupations such as stonemasonry and ice cutting to early pictures of the exhibition grounds.
