  • The Evolving Muskoka Vacation Experience 1860-1945 by Geoffrey
    The Evolving Muskoka Vacation Experience 1860-1945 by Geoffrey Shifflett A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geography Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2012 © Geoffrey Shifflett 2012 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This dissertation examines the development of tourism in Muskoka in the Canadian Shield region from 1860 to 1945. Three key themes are examined: the tourists, the resorts and projected image of the area. When taken together, they provide insight into the origin and evolution of the meanings attached to tourist destinations in the Canadian Shield. The Muskoka Lakes region provides the venue in which continuity and change in each of these elements of the tourism landscape are explored. This dissertation uses previously underutilized primary source materials ranging from hotel ledgers, financial reports, personal correspondence, period brochures, guidebooks, and contemporary newspaper articles to reconstruct the Muskoka tourist experience over an extended period of time. The volume of literature pertaining to American tourism history significantly outweighs similar work conducted on Canadian destinations. This dissertation, therefore, begins with an overview of key works related to the historical development of tourism in the United States followed by a survey of corresponding Canadian literature. The lack of an analytical structure in many tourist historical works is identified as a methodological gap in the literature.

Because everyone was used to horse drawn (Ford Motor Company of Canada Archives) wagons, the new contraption became called “the horse- less carriage.” Part Three 1901 - 1950 he first gasoline-powered automobiles were invented by Americans Charles and Frank Duryea in 1893. They started Tmanufacturing at their Duryea Motor Wagon Company factory in Springfield, Massachusetts. In 1896, Frank Duryea traveled with the Barnum & Bailey Circus and drove his car around the ring. Henry Ford began to manufacture cars in Detroit, Michigan, in 1903, and others followed. The Ford Motor Company was worth $100,000 U.S. in 1903 and by 1927 had escalated to $700 million. The first Model T advertisement appeared in the Saturday Evening Post in 1908 with a price tag of $280. The mass production in the first decade by Henry Ford brought about a tremendous change in transportation. The day of the horse drawn wagons and carriages would become passe. The automobile was here to stay. The right to manufacture cars in Ontario was acquired in 1904 by 31 year old Gordon Morton McGregor, the president of the Walkerville Wagon Company in Walkerville (Windsor). McGregor, as founder and General Manager, incorporated a new company on August 17th called the Ford Motor Company of Canada, with a capi- Tom, Maud and Grandma Duck and the Family Car (Region of Peel Archives) 60 tal of $125,000.

  • The Greening of Golf
    3 Waging a war on pests: golf comes to America Having established our theoretical foundation, we begin this chapter in the early 1900s, at a time not long after golf had migrated to North America from the other side of the Atlantic. Golf’s official history in North America begins in 1873 with the foundation of the Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Canada (The Royal Montreal Golf Club, 2011). Fifteen years later, the first American course was formed in Yonkers, New York (see PGA.com, 2013). The journey from Europe to Canada and the United States was surely not the first moment at which golf spiralled together with the forces of globalization. The Royal Calcutta Golf Club, for example, still considers itself “the home of golf in India”, having been founded in 1829 and conferred the title ‘Royal’ at the start of the next cen- tury (The Royal Calcutta Golf Club., n.d.). But our analysis in this chapter begins from the premise that golf’s journey to North America, and especially the United States, is particularly important when considering the game’s overall history – and its environmental impact. Although golf’s origins are contested, Scotland is commonly presumed to be the birthplace of the game. Scotland is, if nothing else, the site of one of golf’s more famous stories: King James II’s attempt to ban golf on the grounds that it was distracting the masses from their archery practice (British Golf Museum, n.d.). This was an injunction destined to fail. In 1552, as Campbell 2002( ) recounts, “the citizens of the town of St Andrews [Scotland] were given, by charter right, the use of the links for ‘golf, futball, shuteing at all times with other manners of pastime’ ” (Campbell, 2002: 15).
