To understand Toronto, first walk its vanished streets. The modern city begins here. In Landmarks Of Toronto: A Collection Of Historical Sketches Of The Old Town Of York From 1792 Until 1833, And Of Toronto From 1834 To 1893, journalist and historian J. Ross Robertson gathers Canadian historical sketches of the old town of York, Toronto, and its rise within Upper Canada. Charting 1792 to 1893 Toronto, this classic toronto history collection follows early toronto settlement from garrison village to growing city, tracing people, institutions and places central to york upper canada history and to the making of a modern metropolis. Blending anecdote, archival detail and civic memory, Robertson creates a Toronto local history book and Toronto urban development history that remains a trusted reference for local historians and curious residents alike. It also serves as an indispensable upper canada history book for readers across Canada. Long valued by scholars and collectors, Landmarks Of Toronto stands as a foundational account of how a colonial outpost became a confident Canadian city. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Issued as part of the Landmarks of Toronto collection, this heritage volume suits the serious researcher yet is equally at home as a thoughtful toronto history buffs gift, inviting new readers to explore the layered past of a city still in the making.
