Description

"In 1887 Frank William Micklethwaite made his first trip to Muskoka and began his lifelong love affair with its blue lakes and rocky shores. For more than 20 years he journeyed each summer to his little shop at Port Sandfield. From here, he traveled the lakes, shooting scenery and events as he happened upon them - regattas, resorts, cottages, steamers, towns, swimmers, workers, settlers, all captured clearly and artistically in his inimitable style. Over 200 of his photographs are reproduced in this work." - dust jacket. These precious photos are accompanied by considerable supporting text. 191 pages. Bibliography. Map back endpapers. Clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A superb copy of this lavish Muskoka photographic compilation. Gift quality. Oblong 14 3/8" x 11 3/4". Will be securely boxed and shipped with tracking and full insurance. Book
