Waterloo You Never Knew

"The history you don't know is the most fascinating of all. Waterloo, Ontario, could be any small Canadian community. Its familiar histories privilege the 'great accomplishments' of those who built the institutions we know today: industry, government, and education. But what of those who were marginalized, weird, and wonderful -- real people who lived between the boundaries of mainstream existence? Waterloo You Never Knew reveals forgotten and little known tales of a community in transition and reflects on those lives lived in infamy and obscurity, by choice or by design. Meet the ex-slaves and cholera victims, the grave digging doctor, the se ance-loving politician, the rumrunner, and the sorcery-practising healer."--
