The Mosaic Village: An Illustrated History of Winnipeg's North End - Gourluck, Russ

Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to corners; otherwise minimal wear; This book celebrates Winnipeg's most colourful and distinctive area which has produced dozens of infamous Canadians. Beginning with the hopes and dreams of families who came to Canada in search of new lives more than a century ago, The Mosaic Village recounts the stories of generations of North Enders who shopped at Oretzki's, Gunn's, and Kern-Hill; who strolled along Main Street, McGregor, and Selkirk Avenue; who joined their friends at the College, the Deluxe, and the Palace. Drawing on interviews with more than a hundred current and former North Enders and extensively illustrated with photos, this book evokes the sights, sounds, and flavours of Winnipeg's most famous neighbourhood.
