I've very happy to have my first historical book on amazon print on demand. It makes sense, printed locally one at a time, arrives within two days. Looking forward to getting more books up there.
Here's my new book Twitchell & Harris, Photographers Burlington ON and the Ladies on the Grass available on amazon print-on-demand. A great way to buy a book and have within two days.
It's the story of Burlington's first photographers and the Women's Institute, all about a mystery photograph I found in my family treasures.
It's a Hamilton story too, about my great-great grandmother, and a Hamilton street naming, Ardvolich to Baker St, a timely and tragic story from 1918.
