A young Dominion stands on the brink of modernity. It is 1897 in Canada. In this authoritative historical Canadian almanac, government, commerce and everyday life appear in meticulous detail, from parliamentary offices to prairie post towns. Compiled as a commercial and statistical directory, The Canadian Almanac and Miscellaneous Directory for the Year 1897 gathers authentic Canadian commercial statistics, astronomical tables and data, departmental, ecclesiastical, educational and financial records, and government and church directories into one indispensable Victorian era snapshot. For readers of Canada 1890s history, family historians and local researchers, it serves as a resource for genealogists and a primary source for researchers seeking original names, addresses, institutions and enterprises that shaped late Victorian era Canada. Echoing the breadth of the Lovell Canadian Directory and the Dominion of Canada Gazetteer, it functions as a wide-ranging historical reference book, equally suited to casual browsing and close archival study. Entries on businesses, churches, schools, banks, transport links and civic offices illuminate how the Dominion organised itself at the height of imperial confidence and industrial growth. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Prepared with respect for the original structure and typography, this new edition offers historians, collectors and curious readers a faithful window onto Canada as it was in 1897, preserved for personal libraries, reading rooms and institutional collections alike.
