Early Canadian court houses / compiled by Margaret Carter. : R61-2/9-2E-PDF

"Court houses are among the most conspicuous public buildings in Canada. Their prominence reflects the importance Canadians have long attached to their courts as instruments of justice and symbols of social stability. This study examines the early surviving examples of this building type within the context of the court systems they were built to serve, the choice of designs and means of construction employed in varous parts of the country during its formative years, and the roles the buildings subsequently performed within their respective communities. To this end all extant court houses built before 1914 in the East and before 1930 in northern Ontario and the western provinces have been individually researched"--Abstract, p. 4.
