Description

In The Glory of Ottawa Carolyn Young takes the reader on an architectural tour of Canada's first parliament buildings. In the early 1860s these remarkable buildings - particularly the monumental Centre Block, which was destroyed by fire in 1916, and the magnificent polygonal library - became a tangible symbol of Canada's emerging nationhood and one of the most progressive and eclectic examples of the British secular Gothic Revival style.
