Description
Casa Loma: Toronto’s Fairy-Tale Castle and Its Owner, Sir Henry Pellatt by Bill Freeman, with photography by Vincenzo Pietropaolo, is a beautifully illustrated look at one of Toronto’s most recognizable historic landmarks and the remarkable man behind it.
Completed in 1914 after three years of construction by 300 workers, Casa Loma cost approximately $3.5 million to build. Sir Henry Pellatt enjoyed the grand residence for only about a decade before financial difficulties forced him to give it up. Freeman explores Pellatt’s rise as a powerful Toronto financier, his dramatic fall from fortune, and the lasting architectural legacy he left behind.
The book also features a visual tour of Casa Loma, restored to its turn-of-the-century splendour, along with archival images and full-colour photographs. A strong choice for readers interested in Toronto history, Canadian architecture, historic homes, and local heritage.
Paperback, Very Good. Does have a gift inscription on the bottom inside of front cover
