Coach House Books, This Is Not A Reading Series and Fort York National Historic Site present the launch of HTO: Toronto's Water from Lake Iroquois to Lost Rivers to Low-flow Toilets, edited by Wayne Reeves and Christina Palassio.
It's everything you've ever wanted to know about the city's water -- past, present and future. And we kick of its publication with a big party at Historic Fort York!
Join us in the Blue Barracks for a panel discussion about Toronto's water, and follow that up with a guided water-centric walk of the Fort, or some refreshments and informal discussion. Please join us, and feel free to invite your friends.

Drained by a half-dozen major watersheds, cut by a network of deep ravines and fronting on a Great Lake, and home to a massive water supply, wastewater and flood control works, Toronto is a city dominated by water.

How will that relationship with water change in the coming decades? In HTO: Toronto’s Water from Lake Iroquois to Lost Rivers to Low-flow Toilets (Coach House Books), 34 contributors examine the ever-changing interplay between nature and culture, and call into question the city's past, present and future engagement with water.
To celebrate the publication of HTO, This Is Not A Reading Series, Coach House Books and Fort York Spacing's Matt Blackett moderates a panel discussion on the future of Toronto's water, featuring HTO contributors Jennifer Bonnell, Kim Storey, John Lorinc, Gary Miedema, Shawn Micallef and Helen Mills.

Following the panel, guests can either join contributor David Robertson on a guided walking tour of the Fort in relation to Garrison Creek and the original lakeshore, or stay and discuss Toronto's water more informally over a few refreshments in the Blue Barracks.
