Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Following the Second World War, a new generation of politicians and planners across North America set out to reimagine their cities. With great verve and vision, they conceived of brave new urban landscapes filled with elevated highways, modern housing, thriving businesses, and engaging public… spaces. All it would take, they said, was a deep collective capacity to dream and a determined willingness to wipe away the past. And the idea caught on. With great enthusiasm, these politicians and planners set out to realize their grand vision. They proposed that cities tear down great swaths of their aged, derelict, and decaying homes; destroy antiquated, dilapidated buildings; and tear up sordid streets in an effort they called "slum clearance." Of course, these "slums" were also communities often populated by the most vulnerable members of the city, the desperately poor and people of colour, those who had little power to make their own decisions and determine their own fate. The whole process was called urban renewal. By the late 1950s, Halifax's movement for urban renewal became a cresting wave that ultimately wiped away whole neighbourhoods that had stood witness to two hundred years of history. And when the urban renewal wave finally retreated, what was left behind were new spaces like Scotia Square, Mulgrave Park, Cogswell Interchange, and Uniacke Square, among others. But just as often only memory was left of a good many of the communities of Halifax, including Africville. After discovering some fascinating photographs taken before the urban renewal, award-winning author Steven Laffoley set off in search of a city that existed before the "slum clearance" of the 1960s, to see what was, in fact, gained and what was lost in the destruction of Halifax's "mean streets." Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Minor shelf wear, binding tight, pages clean and unmarked. "I was walking into an air-conditioned Halifax tavern on a hot summer afternoon in search of a dark mystery. I was on the trail of a cold-case murder ? a murder case 150 years cold. Clearly, I needed a beer." So begins the strange and surpr…ising adventure of Hunting Halifax, the true tale of writer Steven Edwin Laffoley as he investigates the mean streets and narrow alleys of historic Halifax, Nova Scotia, in search of clues to a murder, a mystery and a black hole in history. In the early hours of September 8, 1853, in the shadow of Citadel Hill, a sailor with a crushed skull lies slumped against the staircase of a notorious tavern on Barrack Street. The death is said to be an accident ? a fall from a window ? until two tavern prostitutes tell Nova Scotia's famous son, Joseph Howe, that it was murder. Prepared to do what it takes to find justice for the murdered sailor, the author sleeps in old graveyards, drinks in rough taverns, converses in trendy coffee shops, pokes about staid Province House, ponders Victorian Age philosophy, and somehow just manages to avoid arrest. Humorous and engaging, Hunting Halifax is an entertaining tale of history, mystery and murder. Born near Boston, Massachusetts, Steven Edwin Laffoley has worked as a beer truck driver, a bookstore manager, a university professor and a school principal. A compulsive freelance writer, columnist and broadcaster, Steven has written dozens of articles and essays for online magazines and newspapers, as well as for CBC Radio. His last book was Mr. Bush, Angus and Me. He lives with his wife and daughter in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
