Description
248 pages. References. Bibliographical notes. Printed on glossy stock. Numerous high-quality reproductions of excellent archival photos. "From the fire rules of Samuel de Champlain for his primitive first settlement at the site of Quebec City, to the fires in modern subways and highrise buildings, it is all here. Traces the growth of commerce and society in a new civilization in the empty continent and the increased dependence on towns and cities as a nation grows." - from dust jacket. Former library copy with usual markings. Somewhat above-average external wear. Binding sound. A worthy reference copy. Book
