eBook – The Result of a Petition from 1896

Jump to Comments

The idea for my eBook began with a petition I found from 1896. This group was advocating for a bicycle trail to be installed along the Grand Trunk Rail Line that follows the Grand River. The group proposed that this trail begin in Galt (now Cambridge) and connect to Blair. I could find very little history about this group and how the trail came into being, so instead I took several trips to the trail to investigate its roots. There is no signage along the trail detailing it’s history and the only reference to the railway is one section of the trail signed as the Grand Trunk Trail. In the end, it only matters that the trail still exists today for walkers and cyclists to enjoy.

The eBook I have created is a small portion of my experience walking this trail. To view my eBook choose either of the following paper sizes, print the file and assemble as per the instructions:
