Part showman, part salesman, was Joe Perkins a visionary or an opportunist? The people of Perth, Ontario could never decide.
Regardless of which opinion one held, it was obvious that in a town where time passes slowly, Joe Perkins was moving at a speed faster than those around him.
This is the fascinating story of one man's attempt to drag his hometown into the 20th century.
Praise for McKenty's Previous Books:
"Readers will find a wealth of information on an era and institution that is all but missing from today's motoring landscape." -- Ian Gray, Perth Courier
"McKenty recounts his stories with a droll wit. Certainly, his subjects are hard to beat, for surely they will never be again." -- Max Wickens, Toronto Star
"The genius of John McKenty is to help us see how our own local citizens make our lives, not just interesting, but more meaningful." -- The Probian
