TORONTO: A Pictorial Celebration by Bruce Bell

With this new book Bruce together with renowned photographer Elan Penn who has taken some of the most breathtaking pictures of Toronto you’ll ever see provides a wonderful narrative of the city’s background from its development from a humble watering hole and hunting ground used by First Nations, to a place renowned for its stark modernity and rich multicultural diversity. From significant firsts, such as the original Parliament site, to tourist favorites like the Hockey Hall of Fame, from the famed CN Tower to over 80 historical sites offering something for history buffs, sports fans, culture seekers, nature lovers, and even shoppers. Follow the rise of an Imperial city; explore the great churches and government buildings; check into the luxurious modern hotels, and go through Toronto’s many universities, the biggest, tallest, and oldest attractions, all in one enjoyable visit.
