The brilliantly talented Brian Gable, seven-time winner of the National Newspaper Award for political cartoons, takes readers on a witty, visual journey through Toronto's transformation from a modest military garrison to a bustling metropolis.

With over seventy original sketches, Gable captures the city's most pivotal moments, weaving together humour and history in a brisk, engaging narrative. Toronto: A Sketchy History is a lively tribute to a city whose past is as colourful as its present.
