About the Book
Discover the hidden history of three unique communities that played a key role in the development of early Canada. Bullock's Corners, Greensville and Crooks Hollow are known today for their serene nature trails and waterfalls, but were once bustling with early water-powered industrial activity and served as a critical transportation link between widely dispersed settlements in the province of Upper Canada. Home to indigenous hunters, enterprising pioneers, and ambitious statesmen, the stories of these interlinked villages show us how history sometimes hides in plain sight.
Water, Transit and Industry is designed to be enjoyed as a historical walking tour guide. Readers can use the book as a reference while hiking local trails, or as a virtual tool to explore the area from the comfort of home. The book is available in multiple formats (trade, square, landscape) based on reader preferences.
