Detailed Product Description
Canada, 1978, 1st edition. 110 pp, 86 b/w photos. Brown cloth hardcover with dust jacket. Fine condition. Frontispiece and 85 black and white illustrations from photographs by Byron Harmon. Edited by Carole Harmon, Byron's granddaughter. Biography by Bart Robinson. Appreciation by Jon Whyte. Arriving in Banff in 1903, Harmon fell in love with the region and settled there with the intention of photographing every aspect of life and landscape in the Canadian Rockies and the Selkirks. He was a charter member of and the official photographer to the Alpine Club of Canada from its outset in 1906. Over the next 30 years Harmon became a leading citizen of Banff, founding the local Board of Trade, the Rotary Club, and serving in municipal government. His collection of more than 6500 photographs provides an outstanding, thorough, and vivid representation of the Canadian Rockies in the early 20th century. The collection is now housed at the Whyte Museum in Banff.
