Summary:
"From a rambling Victorian town to a diverse cosmopolitan city that mixes art and commerce with an Acadian flair, Moncton has rebranded its image as an industrial, hub city into a thriving eclectic locale. "Greater Moncton Then and Now/Le Grand Moncton hier et aujourd'hui" takes readers on a captivating pictorial journey through that transformation, drawing on images from the past and present of Moncton, Riverview, and Dieppe. Over 200 photographs are included, sourced from private collections, the archives of the Moncton Museum, the collection of Reid's Photographic Centre, and Moncton's award-winning photographer Daniel St Louis. Presented in both English and French to reflect the bilingual character of the region, the book is a pilgrimage to the past that strides confidently into the present. Moncton philanthropist H. Reuben Cohen contributes a charming foreword, recalling halcyon days before the post-war boom, while Arthur Dobson and Ken MacLeod write of legacies to the city forged through its hard-working people. Greater Moncton Museum Society President Lourdes O'Reilly says "Our goal is to show you how Moncton, Dieppe, and Riverview have evolved into the wonderful, vibrant communities that exist today." Through visual representation, the evolution of Greater Moncton comes alive, showing how the embrace of progress has propelled the region to one of the most exciting in the country. "Greater Moncton Then and Now/Le Grand Moncton hier et aujourd'hui" is a discerning, innovative, and fascinating record of the region's past and present."--From publisher.
