Item description from seller

Paper bound, edition not stated, 4to, illustrated, 56pp. Very good condition. 220 grams. From the foreword by the Minister of Industry & Commerce: "Winnipeg's history dates back further than that of any other city west of Lake Superior. Since 1812, when the first Scottish immigrants reached the forks of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers, the area has been the locale of a settled community, where men built homes and cultivated the soil. Even earlier, the junction of the two rivers was established as a strategic centre of the fur trade. Many relics and monuments of Winnipeg's exciting past still exist. The purpose of this publication is not to make a comprehensive study of the development of this city, but rather to trace some of the fascinating stories that are woven through the background of its historic sites." All books in stock and available for immediate shipment from Winnipeg, Manitoba.
