Written by Hans and Allyson Tammemagi. Published by Fitzhenry & Whiteside Ltd., 2007. Description: |
| As one of the Seven Wonders of the World – not to mention
the honeymoon capital of North America – Niagara Falls is indisputably one
of this continent's most important tourist destinations. For the millions of
visitors - year-in, year-out - and for residents of the area, Exploring
Niagara turns a wide-angle lens on one of the most diverse and fascinating
corners of Canada and in so doing opens our eyes to the fact that as wondrous
as it is, there is a great deal more to the Niagara region than the
Falls. Covering both sides of the Canada-U.S. border, and all within about a 30-minute drive of the Falls, Exploring Niagara unveils more than 50 tours and day trips to and through places of interest in the Niagara region. Descriptions of the trips themselves - varying from under an hour to several days - detail the historical and geographical highlights of each destination, and offer up a variety, suggesting tours that can be taken by car, by bicycle, or on foot. Exploring Niagara opens the doors to the mighty Niagara Falls, the wineries, the Carolinian forest and hidden waterfalls, the Niagara Escarpment, the Welland and Erie Canals, Queenston Heights, stately mansions, historic battlefields and much, much more. With 28 maps Exploring Niagara is an essential companion for anyone interested in discovering this historic and fascinating region. A bibliography is included for suggested further reading. About the authors: Hans Tammemagi is an award-winning writer and author of several books, including Exploring the Hill: A Guide to Canada’s Parliament Past and Present. Hans is an environmental scientist/consultant who grew up in St. Catharines, Ontario. Allyson Tammemagi is a registered nurse and long-time resident of the Niagara area. |
