This is a paperback book of 80 pages of captioned black & white photos of the Grand Trunk Railway System (Canada) and surrounding areas. It is titled "Across the Continent Through Canada" and was copyrighted in 1917 by H.R. Charlton / Printed in Canada. I wish I could post all the photos as they are just fabulous history of the era. Photos include 4- masted sailing ships in the Atlantic, the cities of Montreal and Ottawa, farming, steamships, buffalo and sheep herds, Jasper and Stanley Parks.
