First edition. This is a collection of photographs from across Montreal illustrating both new and old forms of architecture which can be viewed throughout the city. Photographs are accompanied by brief captions. 'No city in the new world offers the convention visitor so great a range of historic, scenic and recreational interest, combined with the conveniences and amenities of a present day metropolis, as does Montreal, Canada's largest city, and the financial, industrial, commercial and transportation headquarters of the northern half of the North American continent … Montreal is the financial centre of Canada, and the bank of Montreal, which is one of the strongest banks in the world, is an institution of which the city has reason to be proud' (p. [1]).
