Title: This island in time
Description: "From Montreal's founding nearly four centuries ago down to the present day, an astonishing range of people have trod the city's streets. Priests and princes, heroes and the humble, financial wizards and outright fools - all have their stories to be told. Here we have no ordinary history of Montreal. Instead, with this account of spies, zealots, royal tourists, people on the brink of death, and many others besides, something different emerges. It's a portrait as colourful as the city itself."--Jacket.
