From Issue No. 148 | October 01, 2009
Historian Christopher Andrea presents the remarkable story of how the nineteenth century railway age allowed Toronto to increasingly dominate Ontario and transform itself into Canada's industrial powerhouse. Covering the development of the city's industrial foundations and urban infrastructure from 1850 to 1900, he captures the spirit of Toronto's rise from colonial outpost to metropolis.
Dr. Andreae is Senior Built Heritage Specialist for Golder Associates Ltd. and a contributor to the popular new book Toronto, An Illustrated History of Its First 12,000 Years.
