Title
Elsie Reford: 150 Objects of Passion
Abstract
Montreal heiress Elsie Reford (1872-1967) is best remembered for the magnificent garden she created at her summer home in Grand-Métis. But she was also a leading figure in Quebec for several decades in the twentieth century, active in philanthropy, social concerns and political causes. This book, published to honour her 150th birthday, offers an intimate portrayal of a woman who shaped Montreal society and created one of Canada’s most famous gardens.
