From the Sandstone City to oil and population booms, from the murderous saga of William Jumbo Fisk to profiles of former mayor Ralph Klein, cowboy Guy Weadick, and singer Jann Arden, no book on Calgary is more comprehensive and fun.
It Covers Everything in the Heart of Canada's West
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
With the boom in Alberta I've recommended this book to a few people in the East who are interested in at least visiting Calgary. The city is spread out so finding entertainment requires a bit of planning. If you like to ski and hike then Calgary is a place for you. If you need culture and cosmopolitan in Canada then go to Vancouver, Toronto, or Montreal.
