Description

305 pages. Footnotes, bibliography and index. Black and white photographic plates. "On August 16, 1933 a huge swastika flag was unfurled at a Christie Pits softball game. The result was a four-hour race riot which sent many to hospital. Provides a fascinating look at life in the Toronto of fifty years ago, and an engrossing perspective on how ordinary Canadians reacted to the coming of Nazism in Germany." - from dust jacket. Clean and unmarked with light wear. Tight and square. Moderate age-toning to pages. Dust jacket now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy. Book
