From Our Editors

A collection of vignettes written by Toronto Sun columnist Mike Filey since 1971, Toronto Sketches: The Way We Were includes a dialogue on the city's fascinating and dynamic history and offers illuminating photographs of a long-since disappeared Toronto. Filey incorporates a retrospective look at the evolution of public transportation and the architectural landmarks that once provided Toronto with the colour and flavour we now take for granted.
