The twenty paintings, the many black and white drawings, and the carefully researched text are an affectionate look at old Toronto. The personal stories behind the facades are lovin g told by Mary Anne Roberts, who traces their history through the people who built them and the people who have lived (or worked, worshipped, or were entertained) in them."
