Reviews

"It is the quality of the commentary and illustrations that distinguishes this publication from any other guidebook. The special bonus is, however, the recounting of Montreal's experience in the realm of urban conservation and renewal during a period of brutal urban change in North America." David B. Hanna, American Review of Canadian Studies. "The book provides a different and informative guide for anyone visiting Montreal but it has importance, too, as an account of an area where preservation and restoration have taken place." Halifax Mail Star. "McLean's text forms a well-written, low-key accompaniment, supplementing and explaining the outstanding drawings which form the heart of the book." Pacific Historian.
