Description
This classic hardcover volume by celebrated Canadian writer Max Braithwaite offers a richly illustrated and thoughtfully written portrait of Ontario’s landscapes, history, and cultural character. Published in 1974 by J.J. Douglas Ltd. of Vancouver, the book reflects a mid-20th-century appreciation for Canada’s natural and regional identity.
Featuring elegant black-and-white imagery, period typography, and detailed cartographic illustrations, this edition is both a literary and visual exploration of the province. The sturdy cloth-bound cover and substantial paper quality make it well-suited for collectors of Canadiana, regional history, or vintage travel and nature books.
An appealing addition to any library or display shelf, particularly for those with an interest in Ontario, Canadian authors, or 1970s publishing.
