Title |
Montreal's Golden Square Mile : A Neighborhood
|
Abstract |
The author details the history of Montreal’s Golden Square Mile neighbourhood from the 1860’s to the 1930’s, when the city’s Merchant Princes built their grand estates at the foot of Mount Royal overlooking the city. From this unique neighborhood these residents presided over a social, commercial and industrial renaissance that joined a nation from coast to coast. The author maintains that the collective contribution of these families to the establishment and development of Canada is nothing less than remarkable, and the author presents a literary and photographic retrospective elaborating on the individual and family contributions to the building of a nation. The book features more than 600 historical images, including over 350 images by Montreal photographic pioneer William Notman (1826-1891).
