BOOK - Owen Sound, Port City.
By Paul White.
The beginning of
Owen Sound can be traced to the 1840 Historical meeting in a small forest
clearing, between surveyor Charles Rankin and Land agent John Telfer.
Owen Sound, Port City
begins with the history of native peoples of the area and moves through pioneer
settlement to the creation of a city in this more northerly area of Central
Ontario.
The influence of Georgian Bay and the beginning of marine
commerce, combined with the coming of the railway, led to rapid industrial
growth. The memorable stories of interesting personalities, determined
entrepreneurs and local rivalries create a compelling look at Owen Sound
both past and present.
Owen Sound, Port City tells the story of how the citizens of Owen Sound overcame adversity and
challenge to transform the community into a state of prosperity.
