Brock Centenary, 1812-1912

A vivid record of the 1912 centenary at Queenston Heights, this volume captures the community’s reverent tribute to the heroics of Major‑General Sir Isaac Brock and his compatriot John Macdonell. The author sets the scene with a thoughtful introduction that frames Brock’s enduring legacy, then moves into a detailed account of the day's ceremonies, speeches, and the striking panorama of gathered dignitaries and Indigenous participants.

Interwoven with dozens of historic illustrations—portraits, monument photos, and the floral tributes laid upon the cenotaph—the book preserves the names of every representative who attended, offering a rare roll‑call of early‑twentieth‑century Canadian leadership. Contributions from military, political, and cultural figures are highlighted, making the work both a celebration and a valuable snapshot of a nation remembering its past.
