Fascinating history of the "radial railways" in Toronto -- the interurbans that began in the downtown area and eventually reached out (and helped to create) the suburbs. Here is an important part of Toronto's history, told with clarity and humor, and here are the men, such as Robert Jaffray, Charles Warren, and William Mackenzie, who had the vision and energy to build a large and integrated transportation system. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With several maps. Includes bibliography. 168 pages with index.
