by Michael Kluckner and John Atkin Too tired for the Grouse Grind? Had it with squirrels in the park? Why not rejuvenate your mind and body with a walk through historic Vancouver? Now newly revised and updated! Michael Kluckner and John Atkin have! And along the way, they have created an outstanding walking guide to the city's heritage buildings … a fascinating set of 28 self-guided walking tours. Some walks are just a block or two long while others range over entire neighbourhoods, but even the longest can be walked comfortably in a few hours on a sunny afternoon. All the walks include maps or clear directions in a text rich with historical anecdote and short on architectural bafflegab! Some of the walks focus on Chinatown, Yaletown, Stanley Park and the Downtown loop. Other neighbourhoods included are Grandview, Kitsilano, Kerrisdale, and North Vancouver, and Ambleside in West Vancouver. Readers who share John and Michael's fascination with old Vancouver can now develop their own curiosity and explore its neighbourhoods with their eyes wide open. Michael Kluckner is an artist and the author of a dozen books illustrated with his paintings. John Atkin is a designer and the author of Strathcona: Vancouver's First Neighbourhood. He conducts walking tours in the city year-round.
