Approximately 52 pages. Dozens of wonderful black and white illustrations. "This is a sentimental book. The homes which have been chosen vary from the typical frame 'Dog-Kennel" style, to the brick and sandstone mansions of the 'grand' style. Many are gone. Some still stand, watching Calgary grow, and some have been moved to Heritage Park, where, like retired race horses, they are given an honoured place in the pasture.... This book provides a look at people's homes, individual homes, row housing, apartments and even hotels come under the glass from the point of view of the men who built them, the styles and materials they used, and from the point of view of the people who lived in them... Most of the homes in this book were built between 1875 and the First World War." - from Foreward. Clean and unmarked with light wear.
