Excerpt from History and Biographical Gazetteer of Montreal: To the Year 1892 Several books on Canadian Biography have been printed since I issued the first one, in book form and illustrated, sixteen years ago. They generally take in the whole Dominion - this present volume is devoted to Montreal alone. I have endeavored to make this volume of such particular character, that it may become of some value as a book of reference and a guide in which many interesting items (ih connection with the old and modern families of the City) will be found therein. The History of Montreal will be an important item of the work. Very many items of historical interest were exhumed by me from the Records of the Court House and the Montreal Gaol relative to the old customs and manners of our citizen fore fathers, and during some of the stirring periods of her history. A few extracts from men of note and position, and who are calculated to be the best judges of these things, will give a fair idea that I have done something towards saving from oblivion the interesting memorials of Montreal and its environs. The well-known Canadian Litterateur, J. M. LE Moms, Esquire, of Quebec, writes: I must commend your broad and liberal views of matters generally affecting the Colony. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.
