VANISHED BURLINGTON + YOUR CHOICE OF BOOK PACKAGE
VANISHED BURLINGTON
by Gary Evans
Burlington is a modern, vibrant city, and yet it is also a place with important links to the past. While much of that history vanished in time, it should not be forgotten, as the fabric of those buildings plays an important part in who we are today.
Vanished Burlington brings much of that early history back to life, reminding us about buildings, neighbourhoods, events and various landmarks that were once part of Burlington.
Readers will find stories about the Brant Inn, an old amusement park, the Neilson's sign, Burlington's fall fair, and long ago schools and churches. Memories will flood back with other stories about the Willowbank, the Tien Kue, even Trefoil Lodge.

VANISHED HAMILTON III
Edited by Margaret Houghton
Hamilton has a rich history, with magnificent structures, fascinating people, and interesting events playing such an intriguing role in its growth, but, as it lives up to its name as the Ambitious City, so much of what made Hamilton so unique is now long gone, just a memory for even longtime residents.
In Vanished Hamilton III, 19 authors bring back memories of the Mills China Shop, one of the last blacksmiths, Hamilton's ornate yacht club, the five and dime store, the Good Deed Radio Club, old schools, early churches and much, much more.
As in the previous two volumes, (Vanished Hamilton II is out of print), readers will find memories of the past coming alive as they re-live Hamilton of another era.

BEACH & BRANT INN PACKAGE:
MEMORIES OF THE BEACH STRIP
by Gary Evans
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.

BRANT INN MEMORIES
by Stewart Brown
In the 1930s, the little town of Burlington, Ontario, was noted, primarily in the farming community, as a market gardening area. During this period in time, Canada was in the midst of a world-wide depression. It was an unlikely place and an unlikely time for anyone to consider starting a business, particularly a venture into show business.
An impresario named John Murray Anderson saw the potential and turned a site on the shore of Lake Ontario into a nightclub that grew to be internationally renowned. The history of the Brant Inn was recognized within the Burlington Historical Society as a great story that should be fully told and preserved.
