Description

294 pages. Index. Profusely illustrated with black and white reproductions of photos. "A starting point for any Vancouverite's exploration of the city - some three hundred places and services you possibly didn't know about, all of them culled from the more interesting pieces of the Vancouver mosaic. We've got limousines and coffee beans and places that sell cowboy jeans. We've got books, cooks and dining nooks, butchers, bakers and you-name-it makers, frames, games and worthwhile names to know all over town, all of them selected because they help make Vancouver such a terrific place to live. How else could you find out where the oldest neon sign in town is located, or where to find a tailor in a haunted building? Think of this book as three hundred good reasons why somebody would fall in love and become a Vancouverite." - Introduction. Prior owner's details atop half-title page otherwise clean and unmarked with moderate wear. Binding tight. A sound copy of this fun, funky, and informative Vancouver memento. Hale 1072. Book
