Book Synopsis Ontario's Ghost Town Heritage by : Ron Brown
Download or read book Ontario's Ghost Town Heritage written by Ron Brown and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-15 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the urban sprawl, industrialization and endless highway construction, Ontario possesses many hidden corners and lonely roads where the remains of earlier settlements, often constructed with immense effort against impossible odds, now lie forgotten. Some are no more than a few decaying foundations and collapsing houses, while others are littered with the remains of the industry and manufacturing that once thrived there. There is a renewed interest in exploring our own backyard, and Ontario's Ghost Town Heritage is the perfect guide to these once-booming towns and villages. While some still maintain small resident populations, others exist only as abandoned buildings and ruins. All have in common that they are "ghosts" of their former greatness, and their images evoke the lost legacy of Ontario's past. This fascinating book by Ontario historian Ron Brown explores over 80 accessible ghost towns in all parts of Ontario. Detailed driving directions invite you to experience the province's heritage for yourself. This revised edition contains many new sites to visit and has been carefully updated with the latest information and driving directions.

Book Synopsis The Adventure of Two Lifetimes by : Brian Goetz
Download or read book The Adventure of Two Lifetimes written by Brian Goetz and published by . This book was released on 2001-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Today Show, June 24, 1956. June Meyer tells David Garroway that she is looking forward to "the adventure of a lifetime" as she and her friend Teri Foster leave New York City on a pair of three-speed Schwinns. Neither has any bicycle touring experience, but they want to get to California and see as much of the country as possible along the way. Ninety days later, their adventure concludes in Los Angeles. Forty years later, June's daughter and son-in-law stand before a nationwide audience, explaining to Bryant Gumbel that they plan to follow the same route on their modern 24-speed Schwinns, undertaking their own adventure of a lifetime. The Adventure of Two Lifetimes fuses the story of Peggy and Brian Goetz with the tale of Peggy's mother, June, who keeps in touch during the trip, reconstructing her 1956 journey from her journal and scrapbook. The Adventure of Two Lifetimes compares and contrasts America of the 1950s with America in the late 1990s; towns that were booming during June's trip are now shells of their former selves, stripped by big-box stores and interstates. Friendly strangers opened their doors to the weary cyclists in both eras, but June's idealistic naivete-- which results in a horrific assault and near-rape--is matched by Peggy and Brian's careful cynicism. This is not so much a travelogue--of daily mileages and linear directions--as it is a memoir of time, of places, of a mother and a daughter. It's a book about how one woman's courage and quest for a place in the world forever changed her life, and how her daughter emerged from the shadow of that feat to find her own place in the world, together with her husband. And finally, it's a book about America and Americans, in two very different generations.
