Fine in Fine dust jacket. 0888944721. 192 pages. Index. "Presents a collection of photographs and related texts ranging from the years when the street was a tree-lined boulevard, right through to today, when the Queen Street art scene and a rapidly expanding Chinatown are transforming Spadina. Drawing upon his own Jewish roots and family history, Rick Salutin provides a very personal introduction that demonstrates how and why Spadina is unique, and why it has become so important to those whose lives has intersected. Organized to reflect and even re-create the Spadina experience, the book takes the reader up the street starting at the lakeshore and ending at Bloor Street. Photographs from a wide variety of sources are collected here for the first time. The present, the far past and the near past, the mix of ethnic groups and styles of architecture, and the many uses of Spadina Avenue can all be found in this rich and fascinating book."-from dust jacket.
