description
Experience Calgary's history through the story of its "other" river. In this revised and updated edition, John Gilpin delivers the definitive history of the Elbow River and the vital role it has always played in the lives of Calgarians. Drawing upon a rich archive of historical documents, photos, and maps, Gilpin takes readers on a sweeping journey through Calgary's past, from the founding of Fort Calgary to the creation of the Glenmore Reservoir, which unlocked the city's potential for growth. Along the way, you'll meet many of the mavericks who shaped the Calgary we know today, and you'll discover the Elbow's outsized role in the city's growth. The Elbow River was the axis of Calgary's early development, and the battleground for its early feuds. Gilpin concludes by bringing the floods of 2013 into historical context, reminding us that Calgary has always had a complicated relationship with the Elbow as both a benefactor and a threat.

"Experience the life of a city through the story of a river. In this revised and updated edition, John Gilpin delivers the definitive history of the Elbow River and the vital role it played and continues to play in the lives of Calgarians. Drawing upon a wealth of historical documents, photos and maps, Gilpin takes readers on a journey from the earliest days of settlement at Fort Calgary, founded at the confluence of the Elbow and Bow rivers, to the birth of Glenmore Park in 1963. Gilpin also brings the floods of 2013 into historical context, reminding us that throughout Calgary's history the Elbow was always seen as both benefactor and threat."-- Provided by publisher
