Summary:
A book that is sure to be treasured by residents and visitors alike.This is the first full-color pictorial on one of Ontario's fastest
growing tourism and retirement areas. In A View of the Bay, the
acclaimed writer-photographer team responsible for best-selling books
on Muskoka turns their attention to the Collingwood region -- its
history, its attractive four-season lifestyle and the many reasons
for its remarkable population growth in recent years. This naturally

Bay and on the east by the rugged Niagara Escarpment. The area
encompasses not just Collingwood and surroundings, but also Creemore
and the Purple Hills, Thornbury, Wasaga Beach, Beaver Valley and the
Blue Mountains. A View of the Bay features more than 150 color
photographs by one of Canada's finest photographers, while 16
vignettes look at life past and present along southern Georgian Bay,
including: Last launch at "The Yard" Collingwood's shipbuilding
legacy Summer on the water Creemore Springs Brewery The granddaddy of
fall fairs Jozo's Blue Mountain Tornaveen A log home for the
holidays.
