This classic look at old Toronto portrays scenes of public life from 1860 to 1950, illustrating how dramatically the urban fabric and environment have changed. There are photographs of the beaches and the islands, of mud streets and gas lamps, of steam engines and trolley cars, amusement parks and the everchanging waterfront. Especially striking are the early photographs of downtown and the aftermaths of the fire of 1904.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOut of print for over 20 years, \u003ci\u003eA Toronto Album\u003c\/i\u003e has sold over 50,000 copies in various editions.
