THE PRINTS OF KING
By Gary Evans
It's long, stretching from the McMaster campus right through Stoney Creek.
It's old, dating back to the very roots of the community.
It runs right through the heart of the city.
And it's home - or has been - to many of Hamilton's finest buildings, grand churches, various hotels, old schools, several parks, as well as countless stores.
Of course it's King Street!
There are photographs from one end of the street to the other, with old buildings, street scenes, buildings long gone, and a look at parts of the street from the air.
The photographs show a vibrant street, one which has evolved over the years, one filled with memories.

PRINTS OVER HAMILTON
By Gary Evans
While most photographers have had their feet planted firmly on the ground when taking images of Hamilton, others have sought out a completely different perspective when photographing the city over the years.
Many of these photographers have taken to the sky, taking fascinating photographs looking down on the city.
Most of the photographs in this book were taken by photographers flying high over the city, but others climbed to the top of the old city hall building, or the Pigott building, offering a closer view of the landscape.
There's photographs of Clappison's Corners before traffic lights controlled this busy intersection, the old B-Hive restaurant, bridges, neighbourhoods and old buildings in downtown Hamilton.
Prints Over Hamilton is filled with nostalgia, a book that offers readers a chance to explore the city from a most different perspective.

MEMORIES OF WENTWORTH
By Gary Evans
It no longer exists, erased from the landscape with the stroke of a pen, but so many people still have such vivid memories of the old County of Wentworth and its many communities which spread out and surrounded what was in earlier days known as the Head-of-the-Lake.
This book is filled with old photos, including the Incline Railway, Saltfleet High School, old street scenes and communities.
Today, while the names and identities of the historic communities have been preserved, those living in the former Wentworth County have fond memories.
And yes, they all live in Hamilton today, but try telling that to the loyal residents of those historic communities clustered around the Head of the Lake. For them, they’re still at home in Wentworth County.

VANISHED HAMILTON
Edited by Margaret Houghton
Everyone has their own special memories, particularly of people, events and places from the past. Quite often those memories are all that we have left as the people are gone, the events are over and the places have vanished. Some of those things that have vanished are now not even in the living memories of anyone left today.
Hamilton has always been a city of things that are unusual, fascinating and often quite unique. Many of the local historical societies have come together in this book to highlight some of the strange, weird and wonderful things, no longer with us, that have helped to make us what we are today.
Gone but certainly not forgotten are such Hamilton landmarks as the Incline Railway, the B-Hive Restaurant, the Sunken Garden, the Gore Park Washrooms and the Shorty Green.
Vanished Hamilton takes us on a tour through Hamilton's past, both recent and long ago, to give us a unique perspective on the history of the city we all call home.

MEMORIES OF THE BEACH STRIP
By Gary Evans
It was a place of many things.
It was a great place to spend a holiday; a fascinating place to live; and a one of a kind place to have fun.
It was a special place to watch the ships sail into the harbour, and one of the best places anywhere
to hear the music of some of the world’s best entertainers.
It was a place to fish and to hunt, and a place to play. But foremost, it was a beach.
A special beach, just minutes from downtown Hamilton and a stone’s throw from the heart of Burlington, it was Burlington Beach to some, Hamilton Beach for others, and yet was also known as the Beach Strip or the Sand Strip.
