All Saints' Anglican Church Windsor Ontario
1852-2002

by

Joanne and Conrad Reitz

                   All Saints Annglican (Episcopal) Church in Windsor, Ontario, celebrated its 150th anniversary in 2002, and Joanne and I published a new history of the parish.  The book is a result of over a year of research and investigation, and presents an original, interesting and provocative look at the history of this downtown Anglican church during the past century and a half, as well as providing some insight  into the history of Windsor and of the contributions of many of its citizens.  It is 225 pages in length, and contains 140 photographs, including four pages in full colour.
