Book Launch

Many friends of the museum will be familiar with Bob Hasler’s series of books about the history of The Junction area of Paris. Bob has tirelessly researched the properties, the businesses, the train lines and now, finally, the people of the Junction. Congratulations are certainly in order for his work on this series of books, which is an amazing reconstruction of a specific area of town between 1900 and 1960. The details in each book are a true gift to those interested in the history of Paris.

This fifth and final book in his series was launched at the Museum on November 24th, with Bob available to sign books.

All of his books are currently available at the museum. Contact: info@theparismuseum.com or 519-442-9295
