"No city offers more to arouse the pride of citizens and make them smile. And nothing in the city's Centennnial year is likely to be more appropriate than this effort to capture and present an added bit of colorful local history, embracing pioneer struggles, reverses, triumphs, fun, and stories about celebrated personalities like James Walker, the Big Four cattlemen, Senator James Lougheed, Mother Fulham, Paddy Nolan, Bob Edwards and a host of others...it is an amazing story of nation builders and their achievements and every possible effort should be made to preserve it." -Grant MacEwan, the Lieutenant-Governor of Alberta.
