This book takes readers beyond the lights and the sounds of the City of the Falls to venture to lesser-known but equally fascinating sites that abound across the region.

The first-known European to gaze upon Niagara Falls was a Jesuit priest and explorer named Louis Hennepin in 1688. He took his somewhat exaggerated description of its size and power back to amazed Europeans. From then on, the Falls became a must-see destination for people from around the world and one of Canada's leading tourist attractions.

But there is more to the Niagara region than a mighty cataract. There are the world-class hotels and casinos, the Shaw Festival, the wineries, the hydroelectric generators, the natural wonders, the historic sites, and the Welland Canal -- an engineering marvel and vital transportation link.

This book is the story of the falls and beyond, covering:

  • The geological evolution of the Falls
  • Pioneering development of Ontario's hydroelectric power
  • Niagara's wine region
  • Niagara's Indigenous legacy
  • The War of 1812
  • Niagara's Black history and heritage
  • Modern hotels and historic hostelries
  • The Niagara Parkway
  • Bridges across the Niagara River
  • The gardens of Niagara
  • Hiking trails and conservation areas
  • Casinos, hotels and midway rides
  • The Shaw Festival
  • Historic downtown streetscapes
  • Niagara's historic mansions
  • Lost villages and ghost towns
  • Niagara's railway legacy, and more!
