About the Author
Ron Brown is a Toronto writer and geographer. His passion for Canada's vanishing heritage landscapes have carried him form the remote outports of Newfoundland to the ghosted mining camps of British Columbia. His books have brought Canadians, and especially those in Ontario, closer to their unusual landscapes and heritage features. His titles have included books on ghost towns, back roads, unusual wonders of the landscape, and a vanishing railway heritage. He lectures, guides tours, and advises business groups on the heritage which lies in their own back yards. He is also past chair of the Writers Union of Canada.
