Reflections: One Hundred Years

From the d.j.: "The District of North Vanvouver celebrates its Centennial in 1991, marking 100 years of progress. This picture-filled book is part of that exciting and important celebration. You'll meet a wide and often colourful cast of characters in this book: lumber barons Sewell Moody and Robert dollar, the venerable August Jack Khahtsahlano, adventurous Joe Capilano, the "Heroine of Moodyville", Charles Tisdall (the no-nonsense Commissioner), author Ridyard Kipling, 102-year-old pioneer Walter Draycott, war hero Eddie Nahanee, world figure skating champion Karen Magnussen, megastar Bryan Adams and a host of others. This book is a visual reflection of the way we were, as we worked and played, survived the Depression, went to school, built bridges and factories, went off to war, and developed with the times. Many of the photographs have never been seen in print."
