xxi, 355 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm

This book takes us on a brilliantly conceived and thoroughly idiosyncratic walking tour of Canada's biggest metropolis. With the author as our guide, we discover anew the places city dwellers encounter every day, travelling beyond and beneath the obvious landmarks to discover Toronto's metropolitan soul. From the unexpected beauty of industrial sites to civic icons like the Dome and Maple Leaf Gardens, Mays never fails to delight and inform as he uncovers the archaeology of memory that lies in the urban landscape.
