Excerpt from the Preface: "Many histories and pamphlets have in the past, been published on Montreal. This one is different from them all in the arrangement and immense amount of new historical matter which is placed, not in a continuous history, but in that of the different streets, where the events occurred; and it is illustrated by a larger number of governmental, civic and other buildings as found therein than in any other work ever published."  Includes 22 pages of contemporary advertisements.
