As we approach the end of the century, this new book looks back at over one hundred years of CanandaiguaÂ’s history, with photographs of the people, places, and events that have defined the proud and vibrant community we know so well today. Over 200 never before published photographs are presented in this pictorial history, which spans the early 1800Â’s through the early 1950Â’s. Readers will be fascinated by the immense changes that have occurred since the early days, but will also draw connections to the present and can savor the fact that Canandaigua still holds numerous charms of yesteryear. Works from the collection of renowned area photographer Henry Boyce are featured here. This artistÂ’s work documented the events and people that shaped CanandaiguaÂ’s history and community. Rare images of philanthropist Mary Clarke Thompson and her Sonnenberg Gardens will delight readers. Also included are many photographs of CanandaiguaÂ’s early downtown area.
