D'ACRES, LILIA; LUXTON, DONALD (SIGNED)
Lions Gate
Canada: Talonbooks Ltd, 2000. Second Printing. Hardcover. ISBN: 0889224161. 175 pages. Index. References. Copiously illustrated with archival black and white photography. "Like all great historic landmarks, the Lions Gate Bridge remains a source of powerful, sometimes illuminating, sometimes mysterious stories of the people and times which gave birth to it. In addition to celebrating this bridge and its grand design, this work sets out to reveal these stories for the first time, including the unresolved violation of nationhood the building of the bridge on Native land entailed. Most mysterious of all is the figure of the man who both conceived and built this great enterprise. A.J.T. Taylor is a character straight out of Ayn Rand: ambitious, shrewd, visionary, fearless, competitive, a man given to great economic and political risk, he appears to triumph in the embrace of Britain's nobility, high society, and financiers he has courted, and who appear to make the completion of his project both physically and politically possible." - Signed upon title page by Donald Luxton else clean, bright and unmarked with light wear. A nice copy of this impressive volume.; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; Lion's Gate Bridge Vancouver British Columbia Stanley Park North Vancouver History Construction; Signed by Author(s).
