Toronto History and Culture

The following is a list of scholarly and popular works focusing on local history and culture, literature and place, cultural geography, city planning and urban design. Many of the materials engage with Toronto specifically; others deal more broadly with cities, literature or society and space. These materials are available through most university libraries. Also listed are a number of popular non-fiction books about Toronto and a number of literary biographies of Toronto writers.

Beyond the following list, two excellent online inventories of published works on Toronto culture and history are Michael Doucet’s Bibliography on Immigration and Settlement in the Toronto Area, Second Edition (CERIS, 2003) and Carl Benn’s Bibliography of Toronto History Published Since 1990, Sixth Revised and Expanded Edition (City of Toronto, 2006).

These materials are useful if you are interested in the broader context of Toronto literature, its motifs and cultural underpinnings.

If you are interested in a loosely curated collection of books organized by neighbourhood, cultural community, genre or social condition, please view the Literary Neighbourhoods page.

Permission to make use of this bibliography, in whole or in part, for any purpose other than personal use or non-commercial  academic research, shall be obtained in advance in writing.
