The city series

"The Weather Factory highlights the many benchmarks of the city's development-the glorious boom of 1910-13 with the great flour mills and industries which made the city the Minneapolis and Pittsburgh of western Canada; its colourful humourists like "The Office Cat," the new wit, and "Ginger," The Times half-wit; its squandering, like the tourist spectacle of torching gas wells; its slandermongering, like the 1915 civic election; its oddities, like "The Great Tomato War" of 1935; its obsessions, and its regrets."--Cover
