McKay]. [Hamilton, Ont. : Architectural Conservancy of Ontario (Hamilton-Niagara Branch), 1967] 28 p. : photos, ill. Digitized edition from print [produced by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation]. Includes bibliographic references. "This booklet has several objectives. It provides a panorama, not a catalogue, of Hamilton’s Victorian Buildings with pictures, captions, and discourse. It reminds resident and visitor alike that the Act of Confederation in 1867 was part of a larger context of cities and buildings. It also shows that Hamilton holds many superb examples of Pre-Confederation architecture, some of them shabby, soot-laden, and languishing in blighted areas, others marvelously preserved and playing useful roles in the Twentieth Century scene. Products of the years before and after Confederation, these buildings shed valuable light on the architectural styles and fashions of the successive decades of Queen Victoria’s reign (1837-1901)"--Preface. gccst Architecture Architectural Conservancy of Ontario.
