| The
Stanley Park Companion by Paul Grant and Laurie Dickson.
In The Stanley Park Companion Paul Grant and Laurie Dickson have
combined social and natural history — memorabilia, photographs,
illustrations, maps, drawings, anecdotes and remembrances —
to reveal the many surprises tourists and hometown visitors can
find in this thousand-acre sanctuary. For example, many of the
coping stones along the Seawall are actually headstones from Mountain
View Cemetery; one avid golfer achieved his last wish to have
his ashes scattered in every one of the 18 holes at the Stanley
Park Pitch-and-Putt; and Stanley Park and Vancouver’s abundant
grey squirrels are offspring from eight breeding pairs, which
were a gift from New York’s Central Park.
