Description
Mike Filey’s "The Way We Were" column in the Toronto Sun continues to be one of the paper’s most popular features. In Toronto Sketches 4, the fourth volume in Dundurn Press’s Toronto Sketches series, Filey brings together some of the best of his columns.
Each column looks at Toronto as it was, and contributes to our understanding of how Toronto became what it is. Illustrated with photographs of the city’s people and places of the past, Toronto Sketches is a nostalgic journey for the long-time Torontonian, and a voyage of discovery for the newcomer.

"Toronto Sketches ultimately provides an informative glimpse into a past--its small everyday triumphs as well as its mistakes--that we would do well to remember."
