About This Item
Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1986. Book. Illus. by Farmer, Marian. Good. Soft cover. 3rd Edition. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. xvii, 315pp., index, biblio., appendices, photos, ill., figures, maps. Light wear to edges, previous ownership mars on half-title. Posthumous third edition, revised by Stephen A. Otto. Blurb from the original edition: "This handsome book tells the story of Toronto's architectural and social past from the ancient palisaded village at the end of the well-trodden Passage de Toronto, tracing its development through the days when it served as Governor Simcoe's capital of York and as a battliefield in the War of 1812. This book will fill an important need by providing a permanent record in superb written and visual form of much that was beautiful in Toronto's architectural past but has, regrettably, disappeared.".
