Picturesque Quebec : a sequel to Quebec past and present EPUB
by James MacPherson, Sir Le Moine
EPUB
Description
This volume, purporting to be a sequel to QUEBEC PAST AND PRESENT, published in 1876, is intended to complete the history of the city.
New and interesting details will be found in these pages, about the locality, where Samuel de Champlain located his settlement in 1608, together with a rapid glance at incidents, sights, objects, edifices, city gates and other improvements, both ancient and modern, which an antiquarian's ramble round the streets, squares, promenades, monuments, public and private edifices, &c., may disclose.
It will, it is hoped, be found a copious repository of historical, topographical, legendary, industrial and antiquarian lore - garnered not without some trouble from authorities difficult of access to the general reader.
May it prove not merely a faithful mirror of the past, but also an authentic record of the present!
