Quick Quotes

REMARKABLE
"In this remarkable book, we discover a diverse range of things, from opera houses to hotels, from bridges to parks, that were once vibrant and active but are now largely lost to memory. By sharing with us some previously unpublished photos and the stories they tell, Christine Hanlon does a marvellous job at rescuing these sites from obscurity and reminding us of what is so much fun about history." —Dr. Gordon Goldsborough, President and Head Researcher Manitoba Historical Society
  

TREASURE
"Christine Hanlon is a Manitoba treasure. She recognizes the value of place, and the beauty of belonging. In Old Winnipeg: A History in Pictures, she shows us (with many pictures seen for the first time) the Winnipeg we cannot see with our eyes...but that we know to be resident in our deep collective memory. Every Winnipegger should own this book!" —Danny Schur, Composer/Producer/Co-writer of Stand! the movie musical
