Summary:
GG-nominated biographer Elspeth Cameron takes on a member of her own family in this fascinating study of an Edwardian woman. Winnie Cameron, Elspeth's aunt, was born in Seattle, raised briefly in Dawson City, and then moved to
Toronto
to live in Rosedale with her family in the 1910s. Over the course of her
life
, she saw the city change from one dominated by the English and Scotish immigrants, horse-drawn buggies, to a multicultural city where the car reigned supreme. But Winnie wasn't able to keep up with the times: she remained a perpetual debutante, and eventually became bankrupt, unable to cope with the demands of her changing times.
