"Part memoir, part polemic, Rain City explores Vancouver and its history, from its coast mountain skyline to its seedy waterfront tattoo parlours and private booze-cans of the city's elite. From the faux chateau enclave of Whistler to the riot-shaken streets of the early 1960s; from the nuclear scare of the Cuban Missile Crisis, on down to the history of umbrellas, Rain City draws on the author's thirty-plus years of working as a journalist, a book reviewer and a book columnist."-- Provided by publisher.
