Description
Featuring rare archival photographs, Maple City Memories tells the story of Chatham, Ontario—one of the oldest communities in Upper Canada—from its origins as a naval dockyard and its role in the Underground Railroad to the bustle of farms and sugar refineries. With chapters on architecture, industry, sports, and daily life, this stunning visual history highlights those citizens who built Chatham, both at work and at play.
Meticulously researched, beautifully curated, and handsomely designed, Maple City Memories is destined to become a “must-have” book for local history lovers.
