Excerpt from The Garden of Canada: Burlington, Oakville and District For miles about the country is level or gently undulating, rich, and beautiful, and has in the background first the foothills and then the mountain, which shelters this section from the violence of storms that devastate others more exposed. Lying, as it does, in the basin of Lake Ontario and being almost surrounded by the mountain, the district enjoys a climate which really belongs several degrees farther south. When it became necessary to reward Chief Joseph Brant for his military services and the loyalty of the Six Nation Indians, it was here the choice of a tract of something over three thousand acres was made, and here the Chief spent the balance of his life, during which time he made three trips to England in behalf of his people. On the occasion of his second visit the Queen ordered the Duke of Wellington to present the Chief at Windsor, and was so pleased with the inter view that at parting she extended her hand to be kissed, which he declined, saying he would kiss her face, he was king himself at home. Wellington was delighted with the behaviour of the chief and ordered his coach and four. Robed in war costume and with feathers and paint Chief Joseph was driven through Regents Park and all over London. A successful warrior was the Indian's ideal of greatness, and being fresh from the field of Waterloo the Duke filled the bill. Immediately upon his return Brant laid out a square village plot near his own home beside the Big Water and called it Wellington Square, hence the original name. This land has now. All passed out of the hands of the Brant family, and together with the balance of the district, is largely occupied with thoroughbred and dairy herds and large fruit plantations and gardens. The firmness and richness of these horticultural products are recognized in all markets, particularly melons and tomatoes, which are a specialty and shipped in car loads daily. The season here is particularly early and exempt from summer frosts. The first home-grown strawberries that appeared in Toronto this year were shipped from Burlington. In a good average year the shipments of fruit from this point alone exceed five thousand tons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The region's finest heritage homes come to life in glorious colour in the pages of this authoritative new book. Within the communities of Hamilton and Burlington are many fine heritage homes built in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Together, Hamiltonians Susan Evans Shaw and Jean Crankshaw combed the streets and reviewed archive files to choose a selection that represents the many hundreds of heritage homes in the Hamilton/Burlington area. Author Susan Evans Shaw researched the history of each home and the people who have lived in it. Jean Crankshaw photographed each one on the day and time that would show it at its best. This book offers a selection of sixty of these homes, ranging from modest one-storey cottages to the very grand mansions. This architectural heritage is a cultural treasure that Heritage Treasures recognizes and celebrates.
