Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Winner of The Ontario Historical Societys Fred Landon Award for Best Regional History.With 300 photos and 11 maps.A work of unexpected delights and surprises: here is a oneofakind guidebook that pinpoints the best of Ontarios architectural heritage in its most charming towns, offers tantalizing and informative details of provincial history, indulges the near universal vice of realestate voyeurism, and beckons even the most reluctant to physical exercise.Katherine Ashenburg is our knowledgeable and charmingly opinionated companion on walking tours of ten small (populations 1000 to 27,000) Ontario communities that provide a rewarding variety of domestic and public architecture in a walkable compass. Each tour begins with a brief historical sketch of the town, then, with the aid of a detailed map, guides the reader/walker to some 60 sites over a leisurely but carefully plotted twoandahalf to threeandahalf hour stroll. We visit churches and jails, libraries and town halls, theatres and factories, and all manner of houses homes of startling grandiosity and humble integrity. We become conversant with belvederes and ogee arches, Flemish bond and board and batten, at ease with Regency and Queen Anne, Italianate and Romanesque. And along the way, Ashenburg reveals the towns true personality, its distinctive architectural styles, forms and materials, and the genius, ambition, and vanities of its founders and builders.Every town Perth, Picton, Cobourg, St. Marys, NiagaraontheLake, Merrickville, Port Hope, Paris, Stratford and Goderich is a days excursion from Toronto by a car or public transit; most are daytrips from either Ottawa or London. Over 300 black and white photographs capture the highlights; 11 maps show the way. For easy reference, there is a helpful, illustrated Guide to Historical Styles and an exhaustive Glossary of Architectural terms everything from Apse to Voussoir.
