Title: Along the E&N
Author: Glen A. Mofford
Category: Nonfiction, History, Americas, Canada, Modern, 20th Century
Language: English | 237 Pages | ISBN: 1771512873
Description:
In 1885, Vancouver Island's E&N rail service carried coal to smelters and ships, and the towns in the railway's path prospered as the tracks expanded.
Along the E&N celebrates the historic and still-surviving hotels and roadhouses that sprung up near the E&N. Within this carefully researched historical narrative, you'll find stories of the halfway house in the Esquimalt District, the murder and suicide at the Mt Sicker Hotel, and the iconic Quinsam Hotel in Campbell River, burned down in 2017. Peppered with stories of patrons and proprietors alike, this book chronicles the history of sixty hotels—most long gone, destroyed by fire, or simply demolished.
Featuring some of the old hotels remodelled into modern-day neighbourhood pubs—such as the Rod & Gun, the Fanny Bay Inn, the Shady Rest, the Cumberland Pub, and the Waverley Pub—Along the E&N resonates with the haunting echoes of the train's iconic whistle.
