Each retains a direct and immediate connection with Lake Ontario and the natural world. Exploring the history, landscape, geography, and people of each of these waterfront areas reveals a rich heritage that has gone largely unrecognized and is for the most part forgotten.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe book brings to life the stories, many of which have never been told, of the lakefront and the people who have inhabited these special places. It features original interviews with wellknown Canadians like director Norman Jewison, who was raised in the Beach, and swimmer Marilyn Bell. Attention is also paid to the early First Nations presence in each of the featured areas. Historical, anecdotal, descriptive, and at the same time deeply personal, \u003ci\u003eAlong the Shore\u003c\/i\u003eis more than a local history, it is a layered journey that focuses on the connection between Toronto’s natural waterfront heritage and its people.","brand":"ECW Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46506410279167,"sku":"9781770410992","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781770410992_s600x595.jpg?v=1781545375","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781770410992","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
