Hastings County, Ontario Genealogy & History More Canadian Resources | More Ontario Resources More Hastings County Resources BOOK - Heritage Atlas of Hastings County. Editor: Orland French
The Heritage Atlas of Hastings County is a bold, brand-new venture in publishing. Not since the Belden's atlases of the 1880s has such a lavish and detailed atlas been produced of any Ontario municipality. Full colour throughout and 240 pages in size, this hard cover edition brings the evolution of Hastings County to life and records a permanent snapshot of the county at the beginning of the 21st century. It combines history with adventure. Maps and accompanying text are designed to encourage people to explore the county. The book is 8 1/2 by 11 inches, portable in size and cram-packed full of facts. Whether you are searching for abandoned railway stations, old cheese factories, pioneer cemeteries, hidden mine sites, historic buildings, scuttleholes, drumlins or erratic boulders, you'll want to take the Heritage Atlas along. About the Editor: Orland French This is not a reprint. Except for the archival photos and maps employed to tell the story of Hastings, it is all new material. Maps have been created or enhanced by Jozef VanVeenen, a skillful artist and book designer. The project was directed by Orland French, a veteran journalist and book creator. He also took many of the spectacular photos in this publication. 239 pages 8.5" X 11 Full colour Maps Illustrations Photographs: large collection of archival and new maps and photographs Biblio Hardcover Published 2007 ISBN 0-9781099-0-2
