Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a thorough and critical reflection on the need for the city of Toronto to establish a pure and ample supply of water for its growing population. The author delves into the sanitary concerns of the time regarding waterborne illnesses, the risks of fires, and the negative effects of sourcing water from the polluted bay. Throughout the book, the author weighs the options, including the vast cost and challenges of sourcing water from Lake Simcoe, and settles on the most realistic plan: taking water from Lake Ontario. The author details the surveys, experiments, plans, and estimates that went into the decision to source water from the lake and shares information on the technology of the day, including steam power, necessary to pump the water for the city's needs. The author also discusses the need to build standpipes, reservoirs, and towers to ensure both constant and ample water supply to the city.
