I'll never forget stumbling upon a copy of "Prints of Hamilton" on my mom's shelf many years ago. It was fascinating and depressing to see what we'd lost in such a short time. A dozen or so similar retrospective books later, I felt it necessary to pack them up and fire them into the closet, lest I slash my wrists because of it all. ;-)

Naturally, it's important that people understand the history of their city, architectural or otherwise, so as to have a greater appreciation for what they have. If more people did that in Hamilton, we might not be in the situation we're in, losing our built heritage faster than we can save it.
